Marvin Vettori has been campaigning for a fight. Now, the UFC is finally giving him one – and a rematch, no less, with both fighters looking to settle a score. The promotion has booked Vettori against fellow UFC-ranked middleweight Omari Akhmedov for UFC 256 on Dec. 12. The card doesn’t have an official location or venue at this time, though it’s expected to take place at UFC Apex in Las Vegas. Multiple people with knowledge of the situation recently informed MMA Junkie of the booking but asked to remain anonymous as the promotion has yet to make an official announcement.
