It appears that the rematch between Derek Brunson and Ronaldo Souza will go down on Brunson’s home soil.
After the two middleweights recently argued about a potential location for their bout on social media, Brunson confirmed to ESPN.com that they will square off in the UFC on Fox 27 main event in Charlotte, N.C., on Jan. 27. “Jacare” had called for the contest to take place at UFC Fight Night 125 in Belem, Brazil, on Feb. 3.
Brunson told ESPN that he signed his contract to fight at UFC on Fox 27 and expects an announcement from the promotion soon.
