The bantamweight rematch between Pedro Munhoz and Jimmie Rivera will still happen, but it might not be on Fight Island.
Multiple people with knowledge of the promotion’s plans confirmed to MMA Fighting that the matchup will no longer happen on the Jan. 20 UFC Fight Island 8 card due to undisclosed reasons and will now take place at UFC 258 on Feb. 13. A location for the pay-per-view event has yet to be revealed.
The first meeting between Munhoz and Rivera took place at a UFC Fight Night event in Sao Paulo in November 2015.
