A bout between heavyweights Mike Russow and Jon Madsen, both unbeaten in the UFC, is expected for the promotion’s Fight Night 24 card in March.
The bout agreement was first reported by MMA Weekly on Saturday and sources close to Russow’s camp have confirmed the news to MMA Fighting.
Though not yet announced by the promotion, Fight Night 24 is expected to take place at the Key Arena in Seattle on March 26. It will make the UFC’s first event in Washington. The promotion last visited the Pacific Northwest in August 2009 for UFC 102 in Portland. The main card is expected to air live on Spike TV.
