“The Ultimate Fighter 10” winner Roy Nelson is
working his way into the mix.
The round-bellied heavyweight on Saturday posted a message on his
official Twitter account that he expects to face burgeoning takedown
artist Cheick Kongo in his next octagon appearance.
Though not yet confirmed by the UFC, a Fighters Only report this
past week has pegged the match-up to take place at UFC 116.
UFC 116 takes place July 3 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas. A
heavyweight title unification match between current champion Brock
Lesnar and interim champion Shane Carwin is expected to headline.
