The next UFC event will be 102: “Couture vs. Nogueira” airing live via pay-per-view from Portland, Oregon. Being a home town fight for Couture, this serves as a great chance for him to potentially earn a rematch with champ Brock Lesnar.

Opposite Randy in the main event will be MMA legend, PRIDE star and TUF 8 coach “Minotauro” Nogueira. Having been the former interim champ, Big Nog could propel himself back up the rankings and to a title shot with besting his opponent on the night of August 29.
