| Post subject: | UFC on FOX 3 adds John Dodson vs. Darren Uyenoyama at flyweight |
The recently announced UFC on FOX 3 event has a new addition. Following Tuesday's announcement of a Jim Miller vs. Nate Diaz bout, UFC officials announced "The Ultimate Fighter 14" winner John Dodson (12-5 MMA, 1-0 UFC) has agreed to meet Darren Uyenoyama (7-3 MMA, 1-0 UFC) at the event. Both fighters are dropping from bantamweight to flyweight for the fight. UFC on FOX 3 takes place May 5 at IZOD Center in East Rutherford, N.J. The main card airs on FOX, and the prelims are expected to air on FUEL TV. It's not clear which broadcast Dodson vs. Uyenoyama will be a part of. After seven years on the regional circuit, Dodson joined the "TUF 14" cast this past year. Following wins over Brandon Merkt (TKO), John Albert (decision) and Johnny Bedford (which earned him a $25,000 "KO of the Season" bonus), Dodson then defeated T.J. Dillashaw to win "TUF 14" and earn a $40,000 "KO of the Night" bonus at the show's live finale in December. Overall, the Team Jackson-Winkeljohn fight is 5-1 over his past six pro fights going back to early 2009. Uyenoyama, a former Strikeforce and DREAM fighter, recently made his UFC debut at UFC on FOX 1, where he scored a unanimous-decision victory over notable Norifumi "Kid" Yamamoto. A 10-year pro, the California-based fighter is now 3-1 in his past four fights. Source: |
