Mauricio "Shogun" Rua is going home.
A light-heavyweight bout between Rua and Corey Anderson is being discussed for UFC 198 on May 14, MMAFighting.com has learned. The event, scheduled to take place in Rua's hometown of Curitiba, Brazil, will be held at 40,000-seat soccer stadium Arena da Baixada.
The 34-year-old Rua (23-10) pulled out of his UFC on FOX 19 fight against Rashad Evans last week due to a knee injury. He hasn't fought since his August win over Antonio Rogerio Nogueira at UFC 190.
