A lightweight bout between Ultimate Fighter winners Joe Stevenson and Mac Danzig is reportedly in the works for UFC 124 on Dec. 11 in Montreal, Quebec, Canada.
Stevenson (31-11, 8-5 UFC), the winner of season 2 of the reality show, is coming off of a one-sided decision loss to rising Australian prospect George Sotiropoulos at UFC 110 in February. A bout between Stevenson and Takanori Gomi had been scheduled for August, but a knee injury forced Stevenson off of the card.
Danzig (19-8-1, 3-4 UFC) has disappointed since winning The Ultimate Fighter 6, going 3-4 in the UFC, including a 1-4 mark in his last five fights. In his last bout against Matt Wiman, referee Yves Lavigne mistakenly ruled that Danzig had gone unconscious in a guillotine choke, giving Wiman the controversial victory.
Danzig was given the opportunity to avenge the loss in a rematch with Wiman at UFC Fight Night 22, but a chest injury forced Danzig off the card.
