A bantamweight division attraction has been added to UFC Fight Night: Hall vs. Silva as Miles Johns faces Kevin Natividad.
MMA Junkie first reported the bout.
Johns (10-1-0) has won just one of two under the UFC banner with that lone win coming over Cole Smith at UFC Fight Night Vancouver.

Natividad has competed 10 times as a professional MMA fighter and just three of those bouts went the distance.
