The UFC is quickly filling up the recently announced UFC Fight Night 14 event for July 19.

Jake O’Brien, who was recently released by the UFC with two fights still remaining on his contract, has been resigned by the promotion and will fight Cain Velasquez in a heavyweight matchup. O’Brien won his UFC debut against Heath Herring and then lost his next fight against Andrei Arlovski after a full year layoff after spinal surgery. Velasquez made his UFC debut at UFC 83 where he defeated Brad Morris via first round TKO.

Also added to the fight card is a matchup between explosive striker Anthony Johnson and Kevin Burns. Burns made his UFC debut a few weeks ago with a surprising submission victory over Roan Carneiro at UFC 85. Johnson last fought at UFC Fight Night 10 where he defeated Tommy Speer via KO in the first round.
