UFC on FOX 23 has a main event, and it may soon have a key bantamweight battle, as well.

According to a report by MMA Fighting, Aljamain Sterling and Raphael Assuncao will be re-scheduled for the January card after they were forced off UFC Fight Night 102.

Sterling (12-1) suffered his first pro loss earlier this summer to Bryan Caraway, while Assuncao (23-5) was topped by former champion T.J. Dillashaw.

UFC on FOX 23 takes place January 28 from Denver and the Pepsi Center. Female bantamweights Valentina Shevchenko and Julianna Pena are the main event.
