Welterweight competitor Seth Baczynski has lost four of his last five fights in the Octagon, but he's getting another shot to right his ship in April.
The UFC announced on Tuesday that Baczynski will face Leon Edwards at UFC Fight Night 64 in Krakow, Poland, on April 11.
Baczynski, nicknamed "The Polish Pistola," won the first four fights in his UFC return after a one-off loss at The Ultimate Fighter 11 Finale. However, it's been downhill from there, as Baczynski's sole win since 2012 was a decision over Neil Magny, and he's been knocked out twice. That includes in his last fight, where he was taken out by Alan Jouban in the first round at UFC Fight Night 47.
Edwards made his UFC debut in November, dropping a split decision to Claudio Henrique da Silva. That loss snapped a six fight winning streak, which included five straight finishes.
UFC Fight Night 64 will air live on UFC Fight Pass, headlined by a heavyweight rematch between a returning Mirko Cro Cop and Gabriel Gonzaga.
