UFC lightweight competitors Phillipe Nover and Rob Emerson have been set to fight at UFC 109 on February 6 in Las Vegas, Nevada.

The bout was first reported by MMA Weekly.

Nover, a former contestant on The Ultimate Fighter 8, has lost both of his UFC fights. He was recently scheduled to take on Sam Stout at UFC Fight Night 19 in September, but the fight was cancelled due to Nover passing out in the locker room.

Emerson is also TUF alumn, as he competed in the fifth season of the show. His last two outings inside the Octagon ended in defeat, including a unanimous decision loss to Rafael Dos Anjos at UFC 103 in September.
