UFC Fight Night 103: Bryan Caraway vs Jimmie Rivera targeted for Jan. 15 in Phoenix

The upcoming UFC Fight Night 103 event -- which is set to go down on Jan 15, 2017 inside Talking Stick Resort Arena in Phoenix, Arizona — is starting to fill out nicely, as FOX Sports is reporting that a Bantamweight matchup between Jimmie Rivera and Bryan Caraway is close to being finalized for the network-televised event.

Winner of a 19 straight, Rivera (20-1) is coming off an impressive unanimous decision victory over longtime mixed martial arts (MMA) veteran Urijah Faber at UFC 203 a couple months back.

It was without a doubt the biggest win of his career and was filled with its fair share of controversy.
