Kurt “Batman” Pellegrino will take on Thiago Tavares on September 6th as part of the UFC 88: Breakthrough card in Atlanta. Pellegrino (11-4) is coming off a loss to The Ulimate Fighter winner Nate Diaz via triangle choke in round 3 and Tavares was recently knocked out by TUF alumni Matt Wiman - so both fighters need a win to get back into the contender picture.
