The rematch between former Strikeforce champions Ronaldo 'Jacare' Souza vs. Gegard Mousasi is taking place in Los Angeles, California at UFC 176 serving as the co-main event. The event is headlined by Jose Aldo vs. Chad Mendes. UFC 176 is on August 2nd, 2014. Their first fight was in the promotion DREAM in 2008, and the winner was Mousasi. He will be looking to go 2-0 against the Brazilian.
The winner of the fight will be very close to a title shot, so the stakes are very high. Although, there are many fighters in the middleweight division who deserve a shot, including Vitor Belfort, Luke Rockhold, and of course Lyoto Machida, who is fighting Chris Weidman for the belt on July 5th.
