The UFC’s upcoming trip to Norfolk, Va., has added a high-level bantamweight clash to the card.
John Dodson (19-8) and former World Series of Fighting champion Marlon Moraes (18-5-1) are set to meet at UFC Fight Night 120 on Nov. 11 at the Ted Constant Convocation Center, MMA Fighting confirmed Thursday with sources. “The Magician” announced the matchup via Twitter on Friday following an initial report by journalist Farah Hannoun.
This will be Dodson’s fourth fight at bantamweight after a run at 125 pounds that saw him twice challenge Demetrious Johnson for the flyweight title.
