Jeremy Stephens scheduled to fight Arnold Allen on Nov. 7

Jeremy Stephens is set to square off against Arnold Allen in a featherweight bout scheduled for Nov. 7. MMA Junkie was first to report the news of the upcoming fight.

Stephens (28-18) is currently on a cold streak in his long historic career as he’s 0-4 with one no contest in his past five fights. His last win came in February of 2018 when he knocked out Josh Emmett. The fan favorite last fought at UFC 249 in May where he lost to Calvin Kattar by a brutal knockout from an elbow.

Meanwhile, Allen (16-1) is red hot as he’s on a nine-fight winning streak, including a perfect 7-0 in his UFC career. He has notable wins over Nik Lentz, Gilbert Melendez and Jordan Rinaldi in that stretch.
