Viacheslav Borshchev will fight James Llontop at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas during UFC on ESPN 62. They will square off as part of a lightweight contest, offering fans an action-packed bout.
Both fighters seek general redemption after recent losses. Borshchev, training out of Team Alpha Male, suffered a defeat via a Brabo Choke against Chase Hooper. Meanwhile, Llontop last faced Chris Padilla and succumbed to a Rear-Naked Choke. Shifting down from welterweight to lightweight may challenge Llontop's power against Borshchev’s proven knockout ability, but it adds intrigue about his performance at lighter weight.
