Khandare’s opponent - Wuliji ‘Beast Master’ Buren (10-5 record in MMA) – has also not won a single match in UFC and he will also look to bounce back from his loss against Rolando Dy. Khandare faced Song Yadong from China in his first UFC fight in Shanghai and was defeated via submission in the first round. The 28-year-old took part in two more fights and enjoys an unbeaten 5-0 record in the Super Fight League. I’m currently in the best phase of my life, with a UFC contract under my belt,” Khandare had earlier said. UFC 227 will be headlined by a bantamweight title fight between reigning champion TJ Dillshaw and top contender Cody Garbrandt who lost him title in UFC 217.
