A fight between Peter Sobotta and Sergio Moraes, originally scheduled for last month's UFC Fight Night 64 event in Poland, will now head to Germany next month at UFC Fight Night 69.
Sobotta made his return to the UFC in May of last year, defeating Pawel Pawlak by decision for his first official UFC win. He'd lost three in a row in his first stint in 2009 and 2010, but put together a 5-0-1 run outside of the Octagon to get another shot. Unfortunately, injuries have kept the Polish fighter out of action, and are what forced him out of the Moraes fight in his home country.
Brazil's Moraes stayed on that UFC Fight Night 64 card in Poland, facing a second injury replacement after Gasan Umalatov pulled out. Moraes wound up beating Mickael Lebout by decision to earn his third straight win in the UFC.
The UFC Fight Night 69 card hits Berlin on June 20, airing live on UFC Fight Pass, and being headlined by a UFC Women's Strawweight Title fight between Joanna Jedrzejczyk and Jessica Penne.
