Mauricio "Shogun" Rua and Paul Craig are going to run it back.
The UFC has booked Rua vs. Craig 2 for UFC 255 on Nov. 21, sources told ESPN. A location for the event hasn't been finalized.
The light heavyweights fought to a split draw in November 2019. Since then, both fighters are 1-0, with Rua scoring a split-decision win over his rival Antonio Rogerio Nogueira in July and Craig submitting Gadzhimurad Antigulov, also last month.
Rua, 38, is considered one of the legends of MMA. He is a former UFC light heavyweight champion and PRIDE middleweight grand prix champ. According to sources, he is nearing the end of his MMA career but hasn't officially decided how many fights he has left.
The event will be headlined by male and female flyweight title fights: Deiveson Figueiredo vs. Cody Garbrandt and Valentina Shevchenko vs. Jennifer Maia.
