"O Globo" reported today that Chael Sonnen’s rematch against Anderson Silva will be moved to Las Vegas, and rumors indicate that it might happen at UFC 148 on July 7.
Silva’s manager Ed Soares told TATAME on Monday that the bout is already signed for June 23, in Rio de Janeiro, but his Black House partner, Jorge Guimaraes, told TATAME today that the plans could change.
“This situation is already being discussed," sadi Guimares. "There are some speculations. What you heard, I heard too. It seems like there are no hotels to fit everybody with UN’s event, Rio+20."
“(The date) will be announced by Dana White in a press conference in Brazil. Nothing is confirmed yet”.
UFC president Dana White, along with Anderson Silva and Chael Sonnen, will host a press conference in Brazil next Tuesday.
Silva, has demanded that the rematch take place in Brazil. Will he accept the fight in Nevada?
“That you have to ask Anderson. I don’t know,” Jorge said. “First it has to be moved, than we’ll see”.
The two will now meet July 7 in Las Vegas, NV at UFC 148. Problems with United Nation’s Rio 20 event forced the UFC to move the show from June 23 in Brazil to Las Vegas.
A Tuesday press conference is expected where the UFC will officially announce the change.

I thought Cruz vs Faber 3 was also targeted for that card? EDIT: it is.

Pre-fight grade
Silva vs. Sonnen II - 10/10 for sure Tito vs. Griffin III - 5/10 Bisping vs. The Barbarian - 8/10 should be co-main Ace vs. Cung Le - 5/10 Maia vs. Stun Gun - 5/10
Overall 64/100 = officially below average main card.
