Rafael dos
Anjos
will return to the welterweight division for a clash
against Geoff Neal at
UFC
308
.

The pairing was revealed during the
UFC on ABC 7
broadcast on Saturday. UFC 308 takes place on Oct.
26 at Etihad Arena in Abu Dhabi and is headlined by a featherweight
championship bout between Ilia
Topuria
and Max
Holloway
.

Dos Anjos has lost three of his last four Octagon appearances and
is coming off a unanimous decision loss to Mateusz
Gamrot
in a lightweight bout at UFC 299 on March 9. The former
155-pound champion is 5-5 at welterweight since making his first
appearance in the weight class in 2017.

Neal will attempt to get back on track after dropping back-to-back
fights against Ian Garry and
Shavkat
Rakhmonov
. “Handz of Steel” won his first five fights within
the Las Vegas-based promotion but has gone 2-4 in UFC competition
since 2020.
