A pair of featherweights are looking to end 2017 with a bang.

Myles Jury and Rick Glenn will meet Dec. 30 at UFC 219 in Las Vegas, according to reports from MMA Fighting and the Las Vegas Review-Journal.

After winning his first six bouts in the Octagon as a lightweight, 28-year-old Jury suffered consecutive losses to Donald Cerrone and Charles Oliveira - the first defeats of his career - before falling off the radar for 16 months. He returned to action in April at UFC 210, where he trounced featherweight Mike De La Torre via first-round TKO.

Like Jury, Glenn debuted in the UFC at 155 pounds, stepping up in Abel Trujillo's stead on short notice at UFC Fight Night 94. The former World Series of Fighting champ has since rebounded from his decision loss to Evan Dunham with a split verdict over Phillipe Nover and a lopsided decision over Gavin Tucker at UFC 208 and 215, respectively.

The promotion has not yet announced a main event for its last card of the year.
