UFC officials have added a welterrweight bout to the UFC Fight Night 34 event set to go down on January 4th.

Dultra is a Brazilian import coming into the UFC on the heels of a four-fight winning streak, though he hasn’t fought in 2013 at all.

Tarec Saffiedine vs. Hyun Gyu Lim
Hacran Dias vs. Tatsuya Kawajiri
Luiz Dutra vs. Kiichi Kunimoto
Kyung Ho Kang vs. Shunichi Shimizu
