As the UFC's busy summer continues, the fight announcements and rumors are coming fast and furious. Most recently, some big names in the middleweight division have been drawing their next opponents.
Former middleweight champion Chris Weidman is expected to return to action in August. Mike Bohn of MMA Junkie reported he'll face Omari Akhmedov on August 8 as part of a Fight Night event. And ESPN's Ariel Helwani noted heavyweights Derrick Lewis and Aleksei Oleinik have verbally agreed to a bout on that date as well.
Helwani also reported a bout between former middleweight title challenger Yoel Romero and Uriah Hall is also "in the works" for an undetermined date in August.
