Jai Herbert and Ľudovít Klein are set to face off at UFC 286 on March 18

The UFC has matched another banger fight in their lineup for UFC 286. This time, the promotion has signed Jai Herbert and Ľudovít Klein for a lightweight battle as they announced their return to the O2 Arena in London on March 18th.

Revealing the matchup, journalist Marcel Dorff took to his Twitter handle and posted:

Jai Herbert made his first appearance in the promotion at UFC Fight Island 3, where he faced Francisco Trinaldo and was defeated by a technical knockout in the third round.

Of his five fights in the promotion thus far, Herbert has managed to get his hands raised on only two of them. The English fighter currently holds a professional record of 12 fight wins and four defeats.

Likewise, Ludovit Klein is also five-fight old in the promotion. The Slovakian fighter fought his debut fight against Shane Young at UFC 253, where he managed to secure an impressive knockout win in the very first round of their match. 'Mr. Highlight' currently holds a professional fight record of 19 wins and four defeats.

Marvin Vettori vs. Roman Dolidze signed for UFC 286

As the first "BIG" matchup for the upcoming London pay-per-view event, the UFC recently announced a middleweight fight between Marvin Vettori and Roman Dolidze.

Marvin Vettori will be entering the octagon at UFC 286 with the intention of bouncing back from his unanimous decision defeat to Robert Whittaker at the UFC Paris event in September.

The Italian fighter currently holds a fight record of 18 wins, of which two were via knockout, nine via submission, and eleven were first-round finishes. The No. 4 ranked middleweight has only lost six times in his career so far.

Georgian fighter Roman Dolidze, on the other hand, currently boasts a four-fight win streak, with his most recent one being against Jack Hermansson at UFC on ESPN 42, back on 3rd December 2022.

'The Caucasian', who is only seven fights old in the promotion, has been able to get his hand raised in all the appearances except for the one against Trevin Giles back in 2021. Thus, earning the eighth position in the division, only four ranks below 'The Italian Dream.'

At UFC 286, it will be intriguing for spectators to see if Vettori can rebound from his defeat or if Dolidze can secure his fifth consecutive victory in the division.
