Krzysztof Soszynski vs. Stephan Bonnar rematch targeted for UFC 116 in July

Stephan Bonnar will get his rematch with Krzysztof Soszynski, and it’ll likely come on July 3 at a UFC 116 event headlined by UFC heavyweight champion Brock Lesnar vs. interim title-holder Shane Carwin.

The two light heavyweights first met last month at UFC 110. Bonnar suffered a controversial TKO loss from an illegal head butt, and surprisingly, his appeal was denied.

In a video interview with MMAFighting.com, Bonnar said he received a contract for a rematch at UFC 116.
