The scheduled light heavyweight bout between Matt Hamill (http://www.mmauniverse.com/fighters/SS13088) and Brandon Vera (http://www.mmauniverse.com/fighters/SS3136) that was originally reported to be set for UFC 101 (http://www.mmauniverse.com/events/SS11461), has reportedly been moved. Instead of taking place at the beginning of August, it will instead take place at the end of the month at the as-yet-unannounced UFC 102 (http://www.mmauniverse.com/events/SS11534) in Portland, Oregon, according to MMA Junkie.
Hamill and Vera were last in action at UFC 96: Jackson vs Jardine (http://www.mmauniverse.com/events/SS10888) last month, with Hamill earning “Knockout of the Night” for his first-round head kick KO of Mark Munoz (http://www.mmauniverse.com/fighters/SS29463) while Vera picked up a second-round TKO of Mike Patt (http://www.mmauniverse.com/fighters/SS18622) on the preliminary card due to leg kicks.
