One of the UFC’s leading light-heavyweight contenders Glover Teixiera will face Ryan Bader at UFC 160 on May 25th in Las Vegas.
Teixiera has quickly established himself as a major force at 205lbs since joining the UFC last year with three victories in a row including a convincing decision win over Quinton ‘Rampage’ Jackson at ‘UFC On FOX 6’ last month.
Now he’ll take on Bader who bounced back from a KO loss to Lyoto Machida last year with an impressive 50 second guillotine choke victory over Vladimir Matyushenko in January.
This fight will take place on the main card of UFC 160 which is set to be headlined by a heavyweight double-bill featuring Cain Velasquez Vs Antonio Silva and Junior Dos Santos Vs Alistair Overeem.
