Mauricio Rua vs. Volkan Oezdemir has a new date and venue.
The light heavyweight clash that was previously scheduled for UFC Fight Night 129 has been rebooked to headline UFC Fight Night 134 in Hamburg, Germany. Promotion officials announced the change on Monday. The matchup was pulled from the UFC’s May 19 trip to Chile due to ongoing legal issues for Oezdemir, who is facing a third-degree felony battery charge for allegedly knocking a man unconscious outside a Florida bar.
UFC Fight Night 134 takes place at Barclaycard Arena on July 22.
