The fight booking was announced by the UFC on Wednesday.
UFC 194 will come from the MGM Grand Garden Arena on December 12 and will be headlined by a featherweight title unification bout as champion Jose Aldo meets interim champion Conor McGregor.
Alves (10-0) won the middleweight tournament during The Ultimate Fighter Brazil 3 and immediately dropped back down to the welterweight division. He is coming off a submission win earlier this month against Nordine Taleb and two of his three wins in the UFC have come by submission. Covington (8-0) made his UFC debut last year and has gone 3-0 in the promotion. His most recent win came in May as he defeated Mike Pyle by unanimous decision.
The current UFC 194: Aldo vs. McGregor fight card is below.
Jose Aldo (25-1) vs. Conor McGregor (18-2)
Chris Weidman (13-0) vs. Luke Rockhold (14-2)
Ronaldo “Jacare” Souza (22-3, 1NC) vs. Yoel Romero (10-1)
Warlley Alves (10-0) vs. Colby Covington (8-0)
