Light heavyweight standouts Alonzo Menifield and Devin Clark are the latest additions to UFC Oklahoma City.

The Oklahoman on Tuesday reported the 205-pound fighters will meet on the May 2 card at Chesapeake Energy Center in Oklahoma City, Okla.

Menifield aims for his third straight win in the octagon following wins over Vinicius Moreira and Paul Craig. The Dana White Contender Series veteran was supposed to face Trevor Smith this past December at UFC on ESPN 7, but was forced to withdraw from the event for undisclosed reasons. He remains unbeaten after nine pro fights.

Clark saw his most recent opponent, Gadzhimurad Antigulov, withdraw from a scheduled meeting at UFC Rio Rancho. He went on to defeat short-notice replacement Dequan Townsend, putting him back in the win column after a submission loss to Ryan Spann at UFC Tampa.

As previously reported, UFC Oklahoma City is headlined by a middleweight meeting between ex-champ Chris Weidman and Jack Hermansson. A featherweight fight between Ryan Hall and Ricardo Lamas was also added on Monday.
