MMAjunkie.com was first to report the new booking. Daukaus was originally scheduled for a rematch against Kevin Holland before Holland withdrew due to injury. Meanwhile, Dolidze was slated for a matchup with Eryk Anders at the same event before that fight fell through.

UFC Fight Night 197 takes place at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas on Nov. 13 and is headlined by a featherweight tilt between Max Holloway and Yair Rodriguez.

Dolidze has kicked off his promotional tenure with victories in three of his first four Octagon appearances. Most recently, the 33-year-old Georgian outpointed Laureano Staropoli at UFC Fight Night 189 on June 5.

Daukaus, meanwhile, had a submission win against Holland overturned when it was determined the fight was altered due to an accidental clash of heads. The Martinez BJJ representative has just one victory in four Octagon appearances — a decision win against Dustin Stoltzfus at UFC 255.
