Late addition to UFC Paris
Miranda (undisclosed) will now take on Morgan Charriere at UFC Paris on September 28, Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl reports.
ANALYSIS
Miranda got in the win column with the company all the way back in September of 2023 with a first-round submission of a heavy Shane Young, but the Brazilian was forced to withdraw from his follow-up opportunity against Billy Quarantillo in March for an undisclosed reason. With that issue seemingly in the past, he'll now head into enemy territory to face the Frenchman Charriere, who recently lost his originally-scheduled opponent AJ Cunningham (undisclosed). Miranda will hold height and reach advantages against Charriere, who is 1-1 with the company.

Withdraws from Quarantillo fight
Miranda is out of his UFC Vegas 89 fight against Billy Quarantillo, according to Nolan King of USA Today.
ANALYSIS
An undisclosed problem will prevent Miranda from fighting Quarantillo in just under three weeks' time at UFC Vegas 89. Without any specification as to what the former is dealing with, it is unclear when he will fight again.

Scheduled against Quarantillo
Miranda is scheduled to compete against Billy Quarantillo in a featherweight fight at UFC Vegas 89 on March 23, according to Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl.
ANALYSIS
Miranda only fought once during 2023, but it was a good fight. On enemy territory in Sydney, he forced Australian featherweight Shane Young to tap out in their catchweight bout.

Quickly taps out heavy opponent
Miranda defeated Shane Young via submission (rear-naked choke) at 0:59 of Round 1 at UFC 293 on Saturday in Sydney, Australia.
ANALYSIS
It will almost certainly go down as the most lucrative night of Miranda's professional career. Not only will he walk away with his show and win bonuses, but he'll also take home 30 percent of Young's purse after the the latter missed weight by nearly four pounds Friday morning. Once the bell rang, Miranda scored an immediate, easy takedown and got to the back of Young before easily putting him to sleep. It was an excellent bounce-back performance from Miranda on the heels of his knockout loss to the surging Benoit Saint-Denis in his company debut a little over a year ago.

Facing heavy opponent
Miranda's scheduled featherweight fight against Shane Young at UFC 293 on Saturday will proceed at catchweight after Young weighed in at 149.75 pounds Friday morning, MMAFighting.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Miranda will pick up 30 percent of Young's fight purse as compensation for allowing the preliminary bout to proceed on schedule despite the weight miss. He currently sits as approximately a (+105) betting underdog for the matchup.
