Unbeaten featherweight Brian Ortega (10-0-0, 1NC) will meet veteran Clay Guida (32-16-0) at UFC 199 June 4th in Inglewood, California.
Ortega, whose game plan worked to a tee against previous opponent Diego Brandao at UFC 195, will need another workable blueprint against the durable Guida.
Welcome back to The Crossfire.
Guida is trying to rebound from a submission loss to Thiago Tavares at UFC Fight Night 77. He’s split his last six fights.
