Check out all the fights announced over the past week in the UFC, Bellator and other promotions.

Fights on Tap is a weekly roundup of all the fights booked in the UFC, Bellator and other promotions.

The UFC may not have held an event this weekend, but the promotion was still hard at work with fight announcements. Fourteen bouts were either announced or finalized in the past few days, and fans should certainly have some interesting fights to look forward to in the upcoming weeks.

Former lightweight star Kevin Lee is returning to the welterweight division to meet a short-notice replacement in Daniel Rodriguez, who steps in for undefeated prospect Sean Brady at UFC on ESPN 30. Another highlight is a middleweight fight between Edmen Shahbazyan and Nassourdine Imavov, which joins the line-up of UFC 268 in November.

Bellator announced a handful of fights as well, with a light heavyweight fight between Yoel Romero and Phil Davis set as the headliner for Bellator 266. This will be the promotional debut for Romero, who was expected to meet Anthony Johnson in the ongoing light heavyweight Grand Prix earlier this year, but was unable to obtain medical clearance for an eye issue.
