With Drakkar Klose out, Mark Madsen meets Grant Dawson at UFC Fight Night 214 on Nov. 5

After his scrapped bout at UFC Fight Night 213, Mark Madsen has been booked a week later.

Madsen (12-0 MMA, 4-0 UFC) was scheduled to face Drakkar Klose (13-2-1 MMA, 7-2 UFC) on Saturday’s event at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas, but the fight was canceled after Klose injured his ACL.

Instead, Madsen will now take on Grant Dawson (18-1-1 MMA, 6-0-1 UFC) at UFC Fight Night 214 on Nov. 5, which also takes place at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas. MMA Junkie confirmed the booking after an initial report from Combate.

Unbeaten as a professional, Madsen is coming off a unanimous decision win over Vinc Pichel at UFC 273 in April. Prior to that, the Olympic silver medalist wrestler edged out veteran Clay Guida at UFC on ESPN 29 last August.

After battling Ricky Glenn to a majority draw last October, Dawson scored a third-round submission of Jared Gordon at UFC on ESPN 35 in April. The 28-year-old, who’s yet to lose in the octagon, recently made a permanent move to American Top Team.

With the addition, the UFC Fight Night 214 lineup now includes:

  • Marina Rodriguez vs. Amanda Lemos
  • Neil Magny vs. Daniel Rodriguez
  • Jailton Almeida vs. Maxim Grishin
  • Mario Bautista vs. Benito Lopez
  • Nate Maness vs. Tagir Ulanbekov
  • Ramona Pascual vs. Tamires Vidal
  • Jinh Yu Frey vs. Polyana Viana
  • Johnny Munoz vs. Liudvik Sholinian
  • Carlos Candelario vs. Jake Hadley
  • Miranda Maverick vs. Shanna Young
  • Josh Parisian vs. Chase Sherman
  • Darrick Minner vs. Shayilan Nuerdanbieke
  • Grant Dawson vs. Mark Madsen
