Although an exact date hasn’t been determined, verbal agreements are in place, according to FUEL TV’s “UFC Tonight.” The recently rumored bout features two 170-pound grapplers coming off recent victories. Since a move down to welterweight, former middleweight title challenger Maia has won three consecutive bouts. The Brazilian, who made the drop after a decision loss to now-champ Chris Weidman in early 2012, has defeated Dong Hyun Kim (TKO via injury), Rick Story (submission) and Jon Fitch (decision). Maia was expected to fight Josh Koscheck this weekend at UFC 163 but was forced off the card when his opponent suffered an injury
