Russian middleweight Roman Kopylov, who signed a new contract with the strongest league in the world at the beginning of this year, will fight his next fight on June 17 at UFC on ESPN 46 in Las Vegas, and American Josh Fremd will become his opponent.
The organization of the fight was reported by informed sources close to the situation.
32-year-old Roman Kopylov scored his second straight stoppage victory in the organization in January, finishing with a TKO in the second round of American Punahily Soriano. Four months earlier, the Russian fighter knocked out the Italian Alessio Di Chirico, thereby closing two defeats in confrontations with Karl Roberson and Albert Duraev.
Josh Fremd, 29, has fought three fights in the UFC, losing a decision to Anthony Hernandez, losing via choke to Treshin Gore, and finishing with a guillotine finish by Cedric Dumas.
