John Dodson vs. Pedro Munhoz rescheduled for UFC 222

Bantamweights John Dodson and Pedro Munhoz were supposed to fight each other on last Saturday’s UFC Fight Night: Machida vs. Anders card, but will instead go to battle on March 3rd. The Las Vegas Review-Journal confirmed on Tuesday that Dodson vs. Munhoz will now happen at UFC 222.

Dodson (19-9) opted not to fight Munhoz at a catchweight after the Brazilian came in four pounds over the bantamweight limit. The former flyweight title challenger, who has just one more fight on his current UFC deal, is coming off a split decision loss to Marlon Moraes back in November.
