Lightweight veteran, and fan favorite, Bobby Green will be back in action on April 22, as he’s scheduled to take on Jared Gordon at an upcoming UFC event. MMA Junkie was first to report news of the matchup.

Gordon’s last appearance was at UFC 282 in Las Vegas where he clashed with rising star Paddy ”The Baddy” Pimblett in a hyped main card fight. After three rounds, Pimblett stood as the winner via one of the most debated and controversial decisions of 2022.

The public opinion was that Gordon did more than enough to win the bout, and was robbed blind by the judges, who favored the rising British fighter.

Bobby Green is in need of a win

Bobby Green also comes from a tough loss as he suffered a second-round knockout against the powerful Drew Dober this past December.

The 36-year-old veteran looked great, with slick boxing and great head movement, but was eventually caught by Dober’s devastating hands.

Green is 2-2 in his last four fights, with wins against Al Iaquinta and Nasrat Haqparast. His losses came against Islam Makhachev and Dober.
