Connelly pulled off a significant upset in his Octagon debut, when he outpointed Michel Pereira in a welterweight bout at UFC Fight Night 158 in September 2019. He has been sidelined since then after undergoing neck surgery.
A featherweight title holder in Cage Fury Fighting Championships, Sabatini enters the matchup with Connelly on a two-fight winning streak. The 30-year-old Pennsylvanian is 13-3 as a pro, with 11 of those triumphs coming inside the distance.
