Lerone Murphy (9-0-1 MMA, 1-0-1 UFC) will face Douglas Silva de Andrade (26-3 MMA, 4-3 UFC) on a rare Wednesday event, which will take place on Jan. 20 at Etihad Arena in Abu Dhabi. The UFC confirmed the booking Thursday following an initial report from MMA Fighting . After battling Zubaira Tukhugov to a split draw in his promotional debut at UFC 242, undefeated Murphy stopped Ricardo Ramos in the first round at UFC on ESPN 13 in July.
