Pedro Munhoz vs. Jimmie Rivera 2 booking reshuffled to UFC 258 on Feb. 13

Bantamweights Pedro Munhoz and Jimmie Rivera are set to run it back on a new date.

After originally being scheduled for a Jan. 30 UFC Fight Night event that was scratched, Munhoz and Rivera will meet Feb. 13 at UFC 258, which will likely take place at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas.

In November 2015, Rivera (23-4 MMA, 7-3 UFC) edged Munhoz in a back-and-forth battle at UFC Fight Night 77. Since then, Rivera has gone 5-3, most recently snapping a two-fight losing skid with a unanimous decision win over Cody Stamann at UFC on ESPN 13 in July.

After notching three straight wins, including a knockout over former UFC bantamweight champion Cody Garbrandt, Munhoz (18-5 MMA, 8-5 UFC) has dropped two in a row to current title challenger Aljamain Sterling and former UFC lightweight champion Frankie Edgar.

With the addition, the latest UFC 258 lineup includes:

  • Champ Kamaru Usman vs. Gilbert Burns – for welterweight title
  • Pedro Munhoz vs. Jimmie Rivera
  • Uriah Hall vs. Chris Weidman
  • Ian Heinisch vs. Kelvin Gastelum
  • Maycee Barber vs. Alexa Grasso
  • Gabe Green vs. Phil Rowe
  • Dhiego Lima vs. Belal Muhammad
