Gall, on the other hand, will attempt to extend his winning run to two, following a unanimous decision rebound against Salim Touahri in August last year. News of the expected pairing was initially reported by ESPN writer, Brett Okamoto.

In high profile defeats, the Fusion XL Academy trainee dropped results to Alan Jouban, Max Griffin, Santiago Ponzinibbio, another close judging to Vicente Luque, and an armbar loss to Donald 'Cowboy' Cerrone. Before his defeat to 10th. Planet Jiu-Jitsu brown belt, Jouban - Perry had scored nine wins from his first nine professional walks.

Submission specialist, Gall is expected to make his first Octagon appearance since his aforementioned win at UFC Fight Night Norfolk. Pairings with former WEC welterweight champion, and one-time interim UFC welterweight best, Carlos Condit fell apart, as well as a tie with the above noted, Oliveira since.

Known primarily for his UFC 203 rear-naked choke win over former professional wrestler, CM Punk - Gall would go on to then submit now ONE Championship prospect, Sage Northcutt in December of 2016. In his first professional blemish, the New Jersey native dropped a unanimous decision to Randy Brown at UFC 217. In a matching against longtime promotional challenger, Diego Sanchez, the 28-year-old lost a one-sided second-round stoppage via strikes, after rebounding with a rear-naked choke over George Sullivan.
