Patchy Mix is set for a drastically different allocation second time in the UFC.
Mix became the latest controversial name to jump from the PFL to UFC this year, but his arrival in the leading promotion of the sport did not go to plan.
The ex-caller Bantamweight Champion debuted on UFC 316, an event with the head of Merab Dvalishvili who submitted Sean O'Malley to defend his 135 pound belt for the second time.
In the run -up to the event, Mix expressed confidence about fighting Dvalishvili. But his comments about the difficulty of passing Mario Bautista before he was aimed 'the machine' to bite the newcomer, because Mix was convincingly postponed in Newark.
After that result, some quickly wrote off the 31-year-old, but the possibility for mix to recalculate his title plans in the UFC has now been added to the calendar.

Patchy Mix returns to UFC 320 against former KSW champion Jakub Wiklasz
After Mix had spoiled his debut by Bautista, the former Bellator Bantamweight King desperately needs a much improved second display under the UFC banner. If he wants to succeed, the Xtreme Couture height must stop the hope of another Star signs to make a statement in his first trip to the Octagon.
KSW has continued to make a splash as the leader of the MMA scene of Europe, and the action of the organization has clearly attracted the attention of the UFC and its matchmakers.
Last June, the UFC added two champions from the promotion based in Poland to its selection-Fedweight Robert Ruchala and Bantamweight Jakub Wiklasz. After the first had booked his debut for the UFC Paris event in early September, the latter now has a fight for the following month.
Wiklasz, nicknamed 'Masa', will make his arrival against Mix at the UFC 320 Pay-per-View in Las Vegas on October 4. The Bantamweight collision of the couple will appear on the undercard of light heavyweight Champion Champ Magomed Ankalaev's title of Alex Pereira in UFC 320.
The booking sees Mix who is responsible for improving a highly promoted newcomer who has been unbeaten in seven fights since 2020. Wiklasz has submitted the most recently Sebastian Przybysz to KSW 95 to make his third defense of the Bantamweight title of the promotion.

This is a crazy fight, but they should both have had established UFC opponents, not on each other
