A heated middleweight clash between Karl Roberson and Marvin Vettori has been rescheduled for next month.
That’s according to MMA Fighting stating it will take place June 13, citing multiple people close to the situation. There is no announcement as of yet but it should be made official soon as more details come about the event.
Roberson and Vettori were originally scheduled to face each other at UFC Jacksonville last week. However, the fight was canceled when Roberson was unable to compete on the night of the event after being diagnosed with rhabdomyolysis.
Vettori — who had a heated staredown with Roberson on the day of weigh-ins — was not pleased at the time and lashed out at his opponent leading to a near physical altercation.
It looks like they will finally get to throw down in just over three week’s time.
Vettori is on a two-fight winning streak with his last win coming in October last year against Andrew Sanchez. He has struggled to land a fight since due to a number of circumstances including the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
Roberson is also on a two-fight winning streak with his last win being a submission of Roman Kopylov at UFC Moscow back in November.
The UFC was originally planning to hold its debut show in Kazakhstan on June 13. However, it looks like the promotion will now be hosting most of its future events at the Apex facility in Las Vegas.
There are no further fights planned for the June 13 card as of yet.

A middleweight match-up between Marvin Vettori and Karl Roberson was supposed to open up tonight’s main card at the VyStar Veterans Memorial Arena in Jacksonville, Florida. According to Ariel Helwani, that fight has now been pulled from the bill with Roberson becoming unwell after enduring a tough weight cut.
“Tonight’s Karl Roberson vs. Marvin Vettori fight is off, per multiple sources,” Helwani wrote on Twitter. “Roberson fell ill after a tough weight cut. Non-COVID related. More shortly.”
Roberson was the only fighter to miss weight ahead of tonight’s card. The 29-year-old came in 1.5lbs over the middleweight limit of 186lbs. He was fined 20% of his purse which was awarded to Vettori. The fight was due to go ahead at a catchweight of 187.5lbs.
‘Baby K’ has enjoyed some good form since dropping down in weight. He has beaten Wellington Turman and Roman Kopylov in successive fights. Roberson last lost against Glover Teixeira who coincidentally headlines tonight’s event alongside top light-heavyweight contender Anthony Smith. Vettori is in good form himself. The Italian has won two straight since losing against middleweight champion Israel Adesanya in 2018. He’s riding back-to-back wins over Cezar Ferreira and Andrew Sanchez. Vettori was originally expected to fight Darren Stewart at UFC London in March. The bout was scrapped and today’s news means the Italian will probably have to wait a little longer to fight.
