And finally, Cincinnati’s Dom Steele (13-5, 0-0 UFC) will make his UFC debut on short notice as he takes on Zak Cummings (17-4, 2-1 UFC) in a welterweight contest on Fight Pass.

Vision MMA’s Steele has been on a tear of late, most recently picking up the CES MMA welterweight title with a victory over UFC veteran Chuck O’Neil in June. Already a Strikeforce and Bellator veteran, “Non Stop Action Packed” is 7-1 in his last eight outings and has earned victories over O’Neil, Nick Duell, Bellator veteran Dan Hornbuckle, UFC veteran Ryan Thomas, and TUF 21 veteran Nate Moore.

He’ll face TUF 17 veteran Cummings, who won his first two UFC bouts, but hasn’t competed in over a year after a loss to Gunnar Nelson.
