One of the fastest-rising stars in the UFC will look to shatter another fighter’s undefeated record on June 20. Currently in the midst of a rare off week following last Saturday’s UFC Fight Night card that saw Arnold Allen defeat Melquizael Costa in the night’s main event, the UFC returns to Macau next weekend to kick off five consecutive weeks of events through the end of June.Two Meta APEX cards are sandwiched around the “UFC Freedom 250” show scheduled to take place at The White House, and Marcel Dorff reports that Ethyn Ewing will square of with Farid Basharat at UFC Vegas 119 on June 20. Ethyn Ewing Gets Third Undefeated Opponent Out of Three UFC FightsA former bantamweight titleholder with Urijah Faber’s A1 Combat, Ewing was called in to make his UFC debut on short notice when Cody Haddon withdrew from a fight with Malcolm Wellmaker at UFC 322.
