The tenth fight for UFC Fight Night 37 in London has been confirmed, as the UFC announced on Monday that Davey Grant will take on Roland Delorme on the March 8 card.

Grant will make his first official UFC appearance outside of The Ultimate Fighter in this bout, hoping to bounce back from a submission loss to Chris Holdsworth at the TUF 18 Finale in November.

The English bantamweight got a free pass to the finals when his Team Rousey teammate Anthony Gutierrez failed to make weight and was kicked off the show, but he had defeated Louis Fissette and Danny Martinez by submission in the previous two rounds to get to that point. In his professional career, he had won eight straight fights prior to the loss to Holdsworth.

He'll now take on another TUF vet in Delorme, who entered the UFC out of the 14th season. He won three of his first four UFC fights, with a loss to Francisco Rivera getting overturned to a no contest when Rivera failed a drug test. However, after that stretch, he dropped a split decision to Alex Caceres in his most recent outing.

UFC Fight Night 37 takes place on March 8 from London, headlined by a light heavyweight bout between Alexander Gustafsson and Jimi Manuwa. The card will broadcast live in the U.S. via the UFC Fight Pass.
