Benson Henderson isn't the only fighter eying a fight in Korea this November, as Jorge Masvidal wants a bout there as well.

According to Wednesday's UFC Tonight program on Fox Sports 1, Masvidal wants to fight South Korea's Dong Hyun Kim on the UFC's debut in Seoul on November 28.

Masvidal jumped up to welterweight for the first time in his UFC career earlier this month, knocking out Cezar "Mutante" Ferreira at The Ultimate Fighter 21 Finale. That bounced him back from a bad split decision loss to Al Iaquinta, a loss which snapped a three-fight winning streak and prompted the move to welterweight.

As for Kim, the South Korean welterweight has won five of his last six fights, getting back on track in his most recent outing following a loss to Tyron Woodley. That most recent win came over Josh Burkman, as Kim scored a third round triangle choke in May.

The UFC Fight Night Korea card is expected to air on UFC Fight Pass, and is the UFC's first ever trip to South Korea.
