Carvalho-Elkins, Gagnon-Tamura Added to UFC 158

MMA UFC UFC ON FUEL 7

UFC officials have announced two more fights for UFC 158: St-Pierre vs. Diaz. Featherweights Antonio Carvalho-Darren Elkins and bantamweights Mitch Gagnon-Issei Tamura will all compete at the Bell Centre in Montreal, Quebec, Canada at the welterweight-laden event.

Gagnon holds an overall record of 9-2 with all of his wins featuring some form of submission, while Tamura is 7-3 and will be looking to improve his in-Octagon record to 2-1 at the show. In the other clash, Carvalho is a 15-5 Canadian who should receive some love from fans in attendance but is likely to have a tough time on his hands against Elkins who is currently on a four-fight winning streak.

UFC 158 will feature the return of former Strikeforce welterweight champion Nick Diaz as he takes on current UFC title-holder Georges St-Pierre. The card takes place on March 16 and will be available on pay per view. The undercard can be viewed on FX and Facebook.
