Undefeated welterweight prospect Ian Garry will look to take the next step in his MMA career when he locks horns with Gabriel Green at  UFC 276.

The promotion recently confirmed the 170-pound pairing. UFC 276 takes place on July 2 at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas and is headlined by a middleweight title tilt pitting Israel Adesanya against Jared Cannonier. In the co-main event, Alexander Volkanovski will square off against Max Holloway in a featherweight championship trilogy.

Garry, 24, has yet to taste defeat in nine professional outings. The former Cage Warriors champion debuted in the Octagon with a first-round knockout of Jordan Williams before outpointing Darian Weeks in his most recent appearance at UFC 273 this past April.

The 29-year-old Green has rebounded from a loss to Daniel Rodriguez in his promotional debut to post back-to-back victories against Philip Rowe and Yohan Lainesse in his next two UFC appearances. “Gifted” is 11-3 over the course of a tenure that includes fights in Bellator MMA and Combate Global.
