Benavidez-Figueiredo title bout set for UFC's July 18 main event

Joseph Benavidez and Deiveson Figueiredo will meet again for the vacant flyweight title in the UFC Fight Night main event July 18 on Yas Island in Abu Dhabi, Dana White announced Thursday.

Benavidez and Figueiredo met at UFC Norfolk in February for the vacant title after Henry Cejudo relinquished the belt in December. Figueiredo won via second-round TKO but didn't become champion because he missed weight for the contest.

The Brazilian has won three straight bouts. Meanwhile, Benavidez's three-fight winning streak came to an end with the February loss.
