Ray, 29, is coming off a victory that potentially may have saved his UFC career. Following consecutive octagon losses, the Scotsman picked up a crucial unanimous-decision win over Jessin Ayari at UFC Fight Night 138 in October.

“Braveheart” attempts to push his momentum forward against Santos, 39, who will be fighting for the first time since beating Adriano Martins by split decision at UFC 204 in October 2016. The Brazilian is unbeaten in his six-fight UFC tenure, including notable finishes of Kevin Lee and Anthony Rocco Martin.

The latest UFC on ESPN+ 10 card now includes:

  • Alexander Gustafsson vs. Anthony Smith
  • Ilir Latifi vs. Volkan Oezdemir
  • Jimi Manuwa vs. Aleksandar Rakic
  • Makwan Amirkhani vs. Chris Fishgold
  • Nick Hein vs. Luigi Vendramini
  • Stevie Ray vs. Leonardo Santos
