Mizugaki has lost three of his last four in the Octagon. Most recently, the Japanese veteran was stopped in 48 seconds by current No. 1 contender Cody Garbrandt at UFC 202 on Aug. 20. Mizugaki’s other losses during his current slump have come against reigning 135-pound champ Dominick Cruz and rising star Aljamain Sterling, while his lone triumph was a decision win over George Roop at UFC Fight Night 75 in September 2015.
Wineland, meanwhile, ended a two-bout skid earlier this year with a third-round technical knockout victory against Frankie Saenz at UFC on Fox 20. The 32-year-old Indiana native is 4-5 during his promotional tenure, including wins over Brad Pickett, Scott Jorgensen and Yves Jabouin.
