Chad Anheliger returns to the UFC after almost two years away

Chad Anheliger will return to the UFC after almost two years away from the Octagon.

The Canadian will face Steven Koslow at UFC Edmonton on 17 October at Rogers Place.

Anheliger has not fought since November 2024, when he suffered a unanimous decision defeat to Cody Gibson. He will now make his return after a lengthy spell on the sidelines.

The 39-year-old previously recorded UFC victories over Jesse Strader and Charalampos Grigoriou, while his UFC record currently stands at 2-3.

His opponent, Steven Koslow, has also been out of action for a considerable period. The American has not fought since his UFC debut against Cameron Saaiman in December 2022.

The bout will be part of the UFC Edmonton card, which is headlined by Joaquin Buckley against Canada's Mike Malott.
