Mark Munoz vs. Aaron Simpson set for UFC 123

All-American wrestlers Mark Munoz and Aaron Simpson will square off in a middleweight bout at UFC 123 in Detroit.

"I guess it is out. I'm fighting Mark Munoz Nov 20th in Detroit at the Palace. It's gonna be weird...Mark is a really good friend of mine and possibly one of the nicest guys you could ever meet. 10 weeks til I punch him in the face!" Simpson wrote on Facebook.

Since moving down to middleweight, Munoz (8-2, 3-2 UFC) has amassed a 3-1 record, with his lone loss coming to Yushin Okami at "UFC Live on Versus 2."
