Bo
Nickal won’t be resting on his laurels.

announced the match. The event will also include a showdown between
ex-UFC
welterweight champ Tyron
Woodley and current Octagon competitor Joaquin
Buckley.

A three-time NCAA national champion wrestler at Penn State
University, Nickal was one of the most-highly touted MMA prospect
in recent memory. He has largely delivered on that promise, winning
nine of his first 10 professional outings. That includes a 6-1 UFC
record, where he has finished all but one of his triumphs inside
the distance. Nickal defeated Jacob Cardenas via decision at RAF 1
and was later expected to face Yoel Romero
but the pairing was cancelled when “Soldier of God” missed
weight.

McEnelly, meanwhile, was an All-American as a freshman at the
University of Minnesota before winning a national title at 184
pounds in his sophomore year.
