| A welterweight bout between Ricardo Almeida (11-3 MMA, 4-3 UFC) and Matt Brown (11-7 MMA, 4-1 UFC) reportedly will take place in March at UFC 111. MMAjunkie.com ( www.mmajunkie.com) first reported Almeida's likely UFC 111 participation last month, and ESPN's "MMA Live" program today reported the Brazilian jiu-jitsu ace has agreed to fight the well-rounded Brown. UFC 111 takes place March 27 at the Prudential Center in Newark, N.J., with a pay-per-view championship double-header. Welterweight champion Georges St. Pierre meets Dan Hardy in the headliner, and Frank Mir and Shane Carwin clash in a five-rounder that's currently billed as an interim heavyweight title fight. After suffering a disappointing split-decision loss to Patrick Cote in July 2008, Almeida, who's now in his second stint with the UFC, has since bounced back with back-to-back wins over Matt Horwich and Kendall Grove. The former middleweight now heads to the welterweight division with nine wins in his past 10 fights. Brown, meanwhile, recently scored a TKO victory over "The Ultimate Fighter 9" winner James Wilks at UFC 105. The "TUF 7" cast member is now 4-1 in the UFC, and the lone loss came to undefeated Dong Hyun Kim via close split decision. The latest UFC 111 card now includes: * Champ Georges St-Pierre vs. Dan Hardy (for welterweight title) * Shane Carwin vs. Frank Mir (possibly for interim heavyweight title) * Thiago Alves vs. Jon Fitch* * Ricardo Almeida vs. Matt Brown* * - Not officially announced | |

| So he was suppose to fight Jon Fitch if I remember correctly and now they give him Matt Brown? I know Brown has done well in the UFC but that is still a step down. But atleast Almedia has a better shot to win his WW debut. | |
