Another fight has been added to UFC 223 later this year.

The UFC has booked Artem Lobov vs. Alex Caceres on April 7 in Brooklyn, N.Y., MMA Fighting has learned.

Lobov (13-14-1, 1 NC) will look to snap a two-fight losing streak, while Caceres (13-11, 1 NC) has lost three of his last four. The fight will be contested at 145 pounds.

MacLife.com first reported the promotion was targeting the fight last month, though the report did not specify where the bout would take place.

UFC 223 is set for Barclays Center in Brooklyn, and it will be headlined by Tony Ferguson vs. Khabib Nurmagomedov.
