Adding to the depth of its light heavyweight talent pool, the UFC on Thursday announced the signing of Team Quest's Rameau Thierry Sokoudjou (Pictures), who will make his Octagon debut against undefeated Ryoto Machida (Pictures) at the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas on December 29.
The 23-year-old Cameroon native will enter the contest on the heels of two big wins over Brazilian Top Team fighters Anotnio Rogerio Nogueira and Ricardo Arona (Pictures) earlier this year. Sokoudjou's MMA record stands at 4-1-0.
Machida, 29, has an unblemished record in 11 bouts and is 3-0 in the UFC with wins over Sam Hoger (Pictures), David Heath (Pictures) and Japanese judoka Kazuhiro Nakamura (Pictures).
