Light heavyweights Ryan Jimmo and Ovince St. Preux have been added to the UFC 174 main card.

The Province’s Keyboard Kimura Spencer Kyte, broke the story on Friday morning.

Jimmo (19-3) made a bang in his UFC debut, knocking out Anthony Perosh in just seven-seconds. He has since gone 2-2, with his most recent victory coming overĀ Sean O’Connell at The Ultimate Fighter Nations Finale. That bout earned Jimmo ‘Performance of the Night’ honors.

St. Preux (15-5) was a Strikeforce product who made his way over to the UFC when the organization was bought, but didn’t make his debut until 2013. He is currently riding a four-fight unbeaten streak, with three of those coming inside the Octagon. At UFC 171, OSP locked in a tight Von Flue choke againstĀ Nikita Krylov and forced the Russian to tap early in the first.

The light heavyweight showdown will be featured on the evening’s PPV portion of the card.
