A featherweight tilt pitting Gavin Tucker against Jeong Yeong Lee has been added to the UFC 315 lineup.

The Las Vegas-based promotion recently announced the booking. UFC 315 takes place on May 10 at the Bell Centre in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, and is headlined by a welterweight championship clash between Belal Muhammad and Jack Della Maddalena. In the co-main event, Valentina Shevchenko will defend the flyweight crown against Manon Fiorot.

Tucker will be back in action for the first time since August 2023, when he suffered a first-round submission loss to recent title challenger Diego Lopes at UFC on ESPN 50. The 38-year-old Canadian won four of his first five Octagon appearances before dropping back-to-back fights against Dan Ige and Lopes.

Lee was originally supposed to meet Trevor Peek at UFC Des Moines before his opponent withdrew from the bout after suffering an injury while jumping rope. The South Korean has won two of his first three promotional outings but is coming off a first-round TKO loss against Hyder Amil at UFC on ESPN 60.
