...OH, ONE MORE THING - PLEASE BOOKMARK US & VISIT DAILY!
Norifumi "Kid" Yamamoto has lost both of his fights in the UFC this year, and has won only one fight in his last five, but the UFC is booking him for at least one more fight, adding him to the UFC Japan fight card on February 26.
The organization announced during a press conference for the event in Japan that Yamamoto will face Vaughan Lee on the card.
Yamamoto debuted in the UFC in February, losing a decision to Demetrious "Mighty Mouse" Johnson. He then took on Darren Uyenoyama on the undercard of the UFC's debut on Fox, again losing by decision.
British bantamweight Vaughan Lee made his UFC debut at UFC 138 earlier this month, losing a split decision to Chris Cariaso.
