A key lightweight bout between Michael Johnson and Beneil Dariush is the latest addition to August’s UFC Fight Night 74 event in Nashville.

UFC officials announced the fight today via FOXSports.com.

Michael “The Menace” Johnson (16-8 MMA) was most recently seen in action at February’s UFC Fight Night event in Brazil, where he earned a unanimous decision victory over feared striker Edson Barboza. That win marked Johnson’s fourth-straight, as he had previosuly earned victories over Melvin Guillard, Gleison Tibau and Joe Lauzon respectively.

Meanwhile, Beneil Dariush (11-1 MMA) was last seen in action at April’s UFC on FOX 15 event in Newark, where he scored a unanimous decision victory over veteran Jim Miller. Like Johnson, Dariush is also riding a four-fight win streak, scoring wins over Tony Martin, Carlos Diego Ferreira and Daron Cruickshank during that stretch.

UFC Fight Night 74 takes place August 8 live from Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, Tennessee. The event is headlined by a light heavyweight bout featuring former title challenger Glover Teixeira taking on surging contender Ovince Saint Preux.
