Nolan is slated to enter the Octagon against Nikolas
Motta
at
UFC Fight Night 234
on Jan. 13 at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas.
Nolan confirmed the bout on social media following an intial report
from Eurosport.

Nolan earned a UFC contract with a first-round knockout of Bogdan Grad
on Dana White’s Contender Series this past August. The 23-year-old
Team Compton Training Centre representative has finished his last
four victories by knockout or technical knockout.

Also a former competitor on the Contender Series, Motta has gone
1-2 with one no contest thus far in his UFC tenure. His most recent
appearance came at UFC Fight Night 232, when his bout against
Trey
Ogden
was waved off prematurely by referee Mike Beltran, who
incorrectly determined that Motta had been rendered unconscious by
an arm-triangle choke. That resulted in the fight being overturned
to a no contest.
