Canadian bantamweight Charles (Air) Jourdain will face American Ricky Simon on a June 14 UFC Fight Night card in Atlanta.
The main event at State Farm Arena sees former welterweight champion Kamaru (The Nigerian Nightmare) Usman, a Nigerian-born American currently ranked fifth among 170-pound contenders, against No. 7 Joaquin (New Mansa) Buckley of the United States.
Jourdain (16-8-1) snapped a two-fight losing streak with a submission win over Victor (La Mangosta) Henry in November in Edmonton. The 29-year-old from Beloeil, Que., is 7-7-1 in the UFC since making his debut in the promotion in May 2109.
Simon (21-6-0) had lost three in a row before knocking out England’s Javid (The Snow Leopard) Basharat in February. The 32-year-old is 9-5-0 in the UFC.
