A welterweight bout between Phil Baroni and "Ultimate Fighter 11" semifinalist Brad Tavares is in the works for UFC 125 on New Year's Day.
Baroni (13-12, 3-6 UFC) will look to bounce back from a decision loss to "Ultimate Fighter 7" winner Amir Sadollah at UFC 106. He was then scheduled to face John Salter at UFC 118, but an injury forced him off of the card.
Tavares (5-0, 1-0 UFC) made it to the semifinals of "The Ultimate Fighter 11" before getting eliminated by eventual winner Court McGee. On the show's finale, Tavares defeated fellow cast member Seth Baczynski by unanimous decision.
Baroni last three fights:
Loss (Unanimous Decision) Amir Sadollah - UFC 106
Loss (Unanimous Decision) Joe Riggs - Strikeforce: Lawler vs. Shields
