A late addition has been made to Saturday’s lineup at UFC on ESPN+ 40. Giga Chikadze (11-2 MMA, 4-0 UFC) will face newcomer Jamey Simmons (6-2 MMA, 0-0 UFC) at UFC on ESPN+ 40, which takes place at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas. MMA Junkie confirmed the booking with multiple sources after an initial report from Adjara Sport . Unbeaten in the UFC, Chikadze will be making a quick turnaround, for his fourth fight in 2020. The former Glory kickboxer is coming off a unanimous decision win over Omar Morales last month at UFC on ESPN+ 37 in Abu Dhabi. Simmons, who signed a four-fight deal with the UFC, is coming off back-to-back first-round finishes, most recently knocking out Morgan Sickinger in the first round at Pure FC 16 last December.
