Bo Nickal to debut in UFC in December

Bo Nickal will be making his UFC debut this upcoming December.

The 26-year-old American, a former U23 World Wrestling champion, secured himself a contract with UFC few days ago when he defeated Donovan Beard in 52 seconds via triangle choke at Dana White's Contender Series 56.

Nickal will be facing Jamie Pickett at UFC 282 on December 10 in a middleweight bout.

Pickett is on a two-fight losing streak. He currently holds a 2-4 record in the UFC with wins over Laureano Staropoli and Joseph Holmes.
