Undefeated featherweight prospect Jimy Hettes returns to action this September, as the UFC announced on Tuesday that he'll take on Ultimate Fighter 14 contestant Marcus Brimage at UFC 152. Also headed to the card is a welterweight tilt between Simeon Thoresen and Seth Baczynski.

Hettes has been out of action since defeating Nam Phan in impressive fashion at UFC 141. That marked his second straight win in the UFC, and moved his career record to 10-0. Brimage has also won two straight in the Octagon, most recently defeating Maximo Blanco by decision at UFC 145.

Thoresen made a successful UFC debut in April, taking out Besam Yousef at UFC on Fuel 2 in Sweden. Baczysnki lost his UFC debut on the finale of his season of TUF, but after winning two outside of the organization he was brought back. Since then, he's posted three straight wins, most recently edging past Lance Benoist by split decision at UFC on FX 3.
