Undisclosed reasons have put anticipated return to the octagon on hold, leading to newcomer Mitch Ramirez stepping in to face Thiago Moises at UFC Vegas 88 on March 16. The event will take place at the UFC APEX in Las Vegas.
Mitch Ramirez, with an impressive 8-1 record, secured a knockout victory in his recent LFA bout in December. While he previously fell short in his bid for a UFC contract during the Contender Series last August, Ramirez now seizes the opportunity to make his UFC debut on short notice.
Meanwhile, Brazilian fighter Thiago Moises aims to bounce back after his loss to Benoit Saint Denis at UFC Paris last year, where he delivered a memorable Fight of the Night performance. Prior to that defeat, Moises had clinched consecutive wins against Melquizael Costa and Christos Giagos.
Moises and Ramirez’s matchup adds intrigue to the UFC Vegas 88 card, headlined by a heavyweight clash between Tai Tuivasa and Marcin Tybura. As fans anticipate the event, all eyes will be on the octagon debut of Ramirez as he faces the experienced Moises in what promises to be an exciting showdown.
