Blagoy Ivanov will finally be making the walk to the Octagon again.<\/p>\n

Multiple sources have informed BJPENN.com that Ivanov will return at UFC 274 on May 7 against Marcos Rogerio de Lima at a location TBD. The fight has been in the works for a while and now it is finally a done deal. UFC 274 will see Glover Teixeira defend his light heavyweight belt against Jiri Prochazka while Charles Oliveira will defend his lightweight strap against Justin Gaethje.<\/p>\n

Blagoy Ivanov (18-4 and one No Contest) is coming off back-to-back split decision losses to Augusto Sakai in May of 2020 and to Derrick Lewis at UFC 244<\/a>. He’s currently just 2-3 in the UFC as in his promotional<\/a> debut he lost to Junior dos Santos in the main event of a Fight Night card. Ivanov followed that up with decision victories over Ben Rothwell and Tai Tuivasa.<\/p>\n

Prior to signing with the UFC, Ivanov was the former WSOF\/PFL heavyweight champion. He defended the belt four times and holds notable wins over Shawn Jordan, Josh Copeland, and Lavar Johnson among others. The Bulgarian also competed in Bellator and lost to Alexander Volkov in the season 10 heavyweight finals. He’s currently ranked 13th in the UFC rankings.<\/p>\n
