UFC welterweight contenders Vicente Luque and Belal Muhammad are set to meet in a rematch at a yet-be-announced UFC Fight Night event on April 16.
ESPN's Brett Okamoto was the first to report the news of the matchup, but the promotion has yet to officially announce anything regarding the event or booking. Luque won the pair's first meeting via a first-round knockout victory back at UFC 205 in November 2016. He's 10-1 in his last 11 Octagon appearances and is coming off of a first-round submission win over Michael Chiesa at UFC 265. Muhammad on the other hand is 6-0-1 in his last seven fights and will try to build on a unanimous decision victory over former two-time UFC title challenger, Stephen Thompson, at UFC Vegas 45.
