Ricky Simon vs. Jack Shore, Billy Quarantillo vs. Bill Algeo set for UFC card on July 16 

The lineup for the UFC Fight Night card on July 16 continues to grow, as a bantamweight clash between Ricky Simon and Jack Shore and a featherweight tilt pitting Billy Quarantillo against Bill Algeo have been added to the lineup.

Iridium Sports Agency announced Simon vs. Shore, while Sherdog.com's Tudor Leonte initially  reported Quarantillo vs. Algeo. UFC Fight Night is expected to be headlined by a featherweight showdown between Brian Ortega and Yair Rodriguez, with a location and venue to be announced.

Simon has established himself as a person of interest at 135 pounds with a four-bout winning streak that includes a second-round KO of longtime contender Raphael Assuncao in his last outing at UFC Fight Night 199.

A former Cage Warriors champion, Shore is unbeaten in 16 professional appearances — including five in UFC competition. Most recently, “Tank” outpointed Timur Valiev at UFC Fight Night 204.

Quarantillo has lost two of his last three bouts within the Las Vegas-based promotion. The Gracie Tampa South member is coming off a decision defeat against Shane Burgos at UFC 268 this past November.

Alego is 2-2 in four UFC outings. The former Ring of Combat champion last competed at UFC on ESPN 32, where he took a unanimous verdict over Joanderson Brito on Jan. 15.
