John Dodson couldn’t beat a Brazilian in last fight, but he’s set to try again – this time on Brazilian soil.
The UFC announced tonight that Dodson (19-9 MMA, 8-4 UFC) has been booked to face Pedro Munhoz (15-2-1 MMA, 5-2-1 UFC) in a bantamweight bout at UFC Fight Night 125, which takes place Feb. 3 at Mangueirinho Gymnasium in Belem, Brazil. The event airs on FS1 following early prelims on UFC Fight Pass.
Dodson has hit a rough patch in his career during the past two-and-half years. Including a loss to champion Demetrious Johnson in September 2015, Dodson his 2-3 in his last five fights, which includes two close split calls. In his most recent bout in November at UFC Fight Night 120, Dodson was surprised to drop a split decision to Marlon Moraes.
Now Dodson will look to rebound against Munhoz, who is riding a four-fight winning streak that dates back to July 2016. Three of those wins have come by guillotine choke, including his last fight vs. Rob Font in October at UFC Fight Night 119.
Munhoz has lost just one in his native country, to Jimmie Rivera by split decision in Sao Paulo back in November 2015.
