UFC Tampa in December will feature additional featherweight action as Sean Woodson and Fernando Padilla will face off at the Fight Night event.

UFC Tampa (UFC on ESPN 63 for those who keep an eye on such things) takes place on December 14, 2024 at Amalie Arena in Tampa, Florida. The addition of Woodson vs. Padilla to the card was first reported by ESPN Deportes. Woodson later confirmed the booking on social media.

Woodson (12-1-1), also known as “The Sniper,” has had a strong 2024 so far. He is 2-0, started the year with a split decision win over Charles Jourdain and followed that up with Alex “Bruce Leeroy” Cacares over the distance and took victory in all three scorecards.

Currently unranked, Woodson is undefeated since 2020 with a record of 5-0-1.

Padilla (16-5) is 2-1 in the UFC so far after joining the company last year. He holds victories over Julian Erosa and most recently Luis Pajuelo. The 27-year-old from Mexico also fought some very tough competition before joining the UFC, including bouts with UFC veterans Spike Carlyle, Darrick Minner and current star Dan Ige.

  • Joel Alvarez vs. Drakkar Klose
  • Navajo Stirling versus Tuco Tokkos
  • Mackenzie Dern vs. Amanda Ribas
  • Josefine Lindgren Knutsson vs. Piera Rodriguez
