Rising lightweight Stevie Ray is staying busy.

Following an April win over Joe Lauzon, "Braveheart" has booked a home date against Paul "The Irish Dragon" Felder at UFC Fight Night 113 in Glasgow, Scotland on July 16. The promotion announced the fight Friday.

This will be the UFC's second trip to Glasgow, after the first took place in July 2015 and featured a headlining bout between Michael Bisping and Thales Leites. Ray also competed at that event, defeating Leonardo Mafra by first-round TKO to open up the main card.

The 27-year-old Ray is 5-1 in the UFC and 21-6 overall. In his last two outings, he has won decisions over respected Octagon veterans Lauzon and Ross Pearson.

Felder is coming off of a violent first-round finish of Alessandro Ricci in February. He is 5-3 in the UFC, with three of those wins coming by way of knockout or submission.
