Report: John Dodson takes on Pedro Munhoz at UFC Belem

A bantamweight bout was added to the next Brazil card, as Combate reported former flyweight title challenger, John Dodson, will meet the up-and-coming Pedro Munhoz at UFC Fight Night 125 in Belem, Brazil. The night’s main card airs live on Fox Sports 1.

Alternating wins and losses since 2015, John Dodson (19-9) will try to bounce back from a split decision defeat to Marlon Moraes in November. His latest win was in April, when he bested Eddie Wineland via unanimous decision.

Riding a four-fight winning streak, with three submission wins, Pedro Munhoz (12-2-1 NC) got past the likes of Russell Doane, Justin Scoggins, Damian Stasiak and, most recently, Rob Font, back in October.
