Dustin Hazelett vs. Mark Bocek in the works for UFC 124

Dustin Hazelett will try his hand at lightweight for the second time in his career when he takes on Mark Bocek at UFC 124 on Dec. 11 in Montreal.

Hazelett (12-6, 5-4 UFC) has fought at lightweight once already in the UFC, defeating Diego Saraiva by unanimous decision at UFC 67 in 2007. The Brazilian jiu-jitsu black belt will hope to rebound from back to back (T)KO finishes at the hands of Rick Story and Paul Daley.

A fellow Brazilian jiu-jitsu black belt, Bocek (8-3, 4-3 UFC) is coming off of a unanimous decision loss to Jim Miller at UFC 111. Before that setback, Bocek had won three straight in the Octagon.

Hazelett last three fights:
Loss (TKO - punches) Rick Story - UFC 117
Loss (KO - punches) Paul Daley - UFC 108
