The bout will be held at the UFC Apex.
Menery previously posted a photo for the contest in April, saying the event would take place this month in Miami. UFC CEO Dana White said in April he would bet $10,000 Menery would not show up for the Miami bout, which never occurred. White now plans to host the bout.
Brand Risk Promotions said the Manziel-Menery match will air live on YouTube, Kick, Twitch, X and TikTok.
