In Manhoef, he’ll face a veteran of the sport. “No Mercy” is 30-12-1 overall and coming off a knockout of Hisaki Kato.

The card will also feature Pat Curran, a former Bellator featherweight champion, taking on Georgi Karakhanyan in the co-main event.

Michelle Waterson’s quest to become UFC champion will remain sidelined for the extended future.

Waterson, known as the “Karate Hottie” suffered a broken hand in training, according to a report by MMAjunkie.com. The information was obtained by her manager, Joshua Gomez.

Waterson (13-4) scored a victory in her Octagon debut over Angela Magana. She is a former Invicta FC champion.

Gomez said the injury is healing “great” and that Waterson will be re-examined soon. He said the strawweight should be cleared to compete again in July.

Waterson was forced out of a December bout with Tecia Torres due to a knee injury.

Heavyweights Alistair Overeem and Andrei Arlovski will square off this May at UFC Fight Night 87.

The event takes place from Rotterdam, Netherlands and the Ahoy Rotterdam. The main card is expected to air on FOX Sports 1.

Overeem (40-14-1) improved to 5-3 inside the Octagon when he defeated former UFC champion Junior dos Santos. That fight, though, fulfilled his contract and the former Strikeforce champion became a free agent.

Instead of opting to compete elsewhere, Overeem signed with the UFC.

Arlovski (25-11) recently had his six-fight win streak come to a halt at the hands of Stipe Miocic. Over multiple stints with the promotion, he is 14-5.

The event also picked up heavyweights Antonio Silva-Stefan Struve, Rashid Magomedov-Chris Wade, Yan Cabral-Reza Madadi, Magnus Cedenblad-Garreth McLellan and Francimar Barroso-Nikita Krylov.
