Former interim UFC featherweight champion Yair Rodriguez is set to return to the octagon after a prolonged absence, facing Steve Garcia at UFC 335.
The matchup was announced on Friday, November 6, 2026, marking Rodriguez's first fight since his previous bout. Rodriguez, known for his dynamic striking and unorthodox techniques, has been sidelined for an extended period. Garcia, a rising contender, will look to capitalize on the veteran's ring rust.
UFC 335 is expected to take place later this year, with further details on the venue and date to be confirmed.
