Lyoto Machida will take on Derek Brunson at UFC Fight Night 119, in October.

Following an 18-month USADA suspension for admitting to taking a banned substance, former UFC light heavyweight champion, Lyoto Machida now has an oficial date to step back into the Octagon. As Combate reported, Machida will take on Derek Brunson in the main event of the upcoming Sao Paulo card.

39-year-old Machida (22-7) will try and score his first win since Decemeber 2014, when TKO’d C.B. Dollaway in the first round. Afterwards, he suffered losses to contender Yoel Romero and former champion Luke Rockhold. Machida has been away since the Romero bout, which took place in June of 2015.

Derek Brunson (17-5) had a five-fight UFC winning streak halted when he suffered back-to-back losses to Robert Whittaker and Anderson Silva, but he got back on his feet on his last outing when he knocked out Dan Kelly in June.

Lyoto Machida is expected to take on Derek Brunson at UFC Fight Night 119, on October 28, in Sao Paulo, Brazil.
