Former bantamweight title challenger Marlon Moraes will face Rob Font at UFC Fight Night on Dec. 19, sources told MMA Junkie's Nolan King and Danny Segura.

Moraes will look to get back into the win column following a TKO loss to Cory Sandhagen earlier in October. The Brazilian is 1-2 in his past three contests.

Font hasn't stepped into the Octagon since a decision win over Ricky Simon last December. The 33-year-old is riding a two-fight winning streak.

A main event has not yet been announced for the Dec. 19 card, which is reportedly expected to take place at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas.
