The middleweight booking was initially
reported by Laerte Viana. UFC 294 takes place on Oct. 21 at
Etihad Arena in Abu Dhabi and features a lightweight championship
tilt pitting Islam
Makhachev against Charles
Oliveira.
Anchored at GOR MMA, Magomedov is 11-0 as a professional. The
Moscow native has finished 10 of those victories by knockout or
technical knockout, including an eight-second KO of Kushal Vyas
in his last outing at Thailand Fighting Championship 10 on Dec.
11.
After beginning his UFC tenure with three consecutive triumphs,
Silva has lost three of his last four bouts. Most recently, the
former M-1 Global title holder suffered a first-round submission
defeat to Brendan
Allen at UFC on ABC 5 on June 24.
