A welterweight matchup between a Canadian and a Brazilian both looking to return to the win column is the latest addition to UFC 231. UFC officials recently announced that “The Ultimate Fighter Nations” winner Chad Laprise (13-3 MMA, 6-3 UFC) will take on two-time “The Ultimate Fighter” finalist Dhiego Lima (12-7 MMA, 1-5 UFC) at the Dec. 8 event, which takes places at Scotiabank Arena in Toronto. Canada’s Laprise, 32, in his most recent outing suffered a disappointing knockout loss to Vicente Luque at May’s UFC Fight Night 129 event, a result that snapped a three-fight winning streak built on three consecutive TKO victories. Meanwhile, Brazil’s Lima, 29, finds himself in desperate need of a victory after suffering three consecutive official losses.
