A middleweight fight has been booked for the UFC’s next event on Fuel TV.
Rafael Natal and Andrew Craig have agreed to a meet on the summer card. Natal recently announced the matchup on his Twitter account. The two will meet at UFC on Fuel TV 4, which is scheduled for July 11 and will take place at the HP Pavilion in San Jose, Calif. – though the venue has not officially been announced by the UFC.
UFC on Fuel TV 4 is expected to be headlined by a middleweight contenders bout between Mark Munoz and Chris Weidman. James Te Huna and Brandon Vera also are expected to fight on the card.
Natal (14-3-1, 2-1-1 UFC) has put together a two-fight winning streak after starting his UFC career with a loss and a draw.
