A featherweight clash pitting “Ultimate Fighter 15” alumnus Andy Ogle against former Sengoku standout Maximo Blanco will take place at the UFC’s upcoming return to Germany.

UFC officials Thursday announced the booking, which takes place May 31 at the O2 World in Berlin. UFC Fight Night 42 streams live on UFC Fight Pass and is headlined by a pivotal middleweight clash between Gegard Mousasi and Mark Munoz.

Ogle, 25, has gone just 1-3 since introducing himself to UFC fans as a cast member of the first and only live season of “TUF.” The Englishman closed out 2013 with a unanimous decision loss to Cole Miller last October and then kicked off this year with a submission defeat to Charles Oliveira at UFC Fight Night 36.

Blanco, meanwhile, has lost four of his last five fights, with his last win coming one year ago in a unanimous decision victory over Sam Sicilia. Since that triumph, “Maxi” has gone 0-2, first getting himself disqualified by striking Akira Corassani with an illegal knee last November and then dropping a unanimous verdict to Felipe Arantes at UFC Fight Night 36 on Feb. 15.
