The UFC has added a couple of new matchups to the UFC Fight Night 66 card in Manila, Philippines, announcing on Monday that Gegard Mousasi will take on Costas Philippou, while Hyun Gyu Lim will return against Neil Magny.

The 29-year-old Mousasi has won three of his five UFC appearances, most recently defeating Dan Henderson at UFC on Fox 14 in January. Philippou halted a two-fight losing streak his last time out, knocking out Lorenz Larkin in the first round last May.

Lim had a seven fight winning streak snapped last January when he dropped a decision to Tarec Saffiedine, but he bounced back in his return in September, stopping Takenori Sato in the first round at UFC Fight Night 52 in Japan. Magny, meanwhile, has won his last six straight, with all of those wins coming from February 2014 to February of this year.

UFC Fight Night 66 airs live on Fox Sports 1 on the morning of May 16, headlined by the featherweight bout between Frankie Edgar and Urijah Faber.
