The UFC has added a bout between two former TUF competitors to its upcoming August 14th event in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, as the promotion has announced that middleweights Kyle Noke and Tom Lawlor have agreed to fight on the card.

Lawlor (7-3) is coming off a unanimous decision win over Patrick Cote at UFC 121 in October, after dropping back-to-back bouts to Aaron Simpson and Joe Doerksen.

Noke (19-4-1) will head into the UFC Live 5 card having won five straight. Most recently at UFC 127 in February the Australian fighter submitted Chris Camozzi in the first round.

The upcoming August 14th event, which will be hosted by Milwaukee’s Bradley Center, will be broadcast live on the Versus Network.

The card will also feature a welterweight bout between veterans Dan Hardy and Chris Lytle as well as a lightweight tilt between contenders Ben Henderson and Jim Miller.

Other bouts that have been confirmed for the event include a light-heavyweight bout between Stephan Bonnar and Karlos Vemola, welterweight Duane Ludwig vs. Amir Sadollah and featherweight Leonard Garcia vs. Alex Caceres.
