A light heavyweight rematch between Phil Davis and Lyoto Machida is currently in the works for the Bellator MMA card scheduled on Sept. 11.
The matchup was confirmed to MMA Fighting by sources close to the fight with verbal agreements in place. Combate initially reported the fight.
Davis and Machida first met when they were both on the UFC roster back in 2013. On that night, Davis got the job done with a unanimous decision over Machida.
Now, the former Penn State wrestler will look to build on a two-fight win streak after earning TKO’s against both Liam McGeary and Karl Albrektsson.
