3rd ranked WBC super middleweight Sergei "El Flaco" Bogachuk (22-1, 22 KOs) will defend his WBC Continental Americas title against a former world title contender Patrick Allotey (42-4, 32 KOs) on July 22 at the Chumash Casino Arena in Santa Ynez, California. The fight is scheduled for 10 rounds and will be broadcast on the UFC Fightpass platform.

In his previous fight, which took place in January of this year, Bogachuk scored an early victory in the sixth round over Nathaniel Gallimore.

Allotey got his championship chance in September 2019, when he met with the then WBO middleweight champion Jaime Mungia, but lost ahead of schedule in the fourth round.
