A very good welterweight fight between Paulo Thiago and Mike Pyle is coming to UFC 142 in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil in January, according to a report from Tatame.com.
Thiago snapped a two-fight losing streak at the UFC's last event in Brazil in August, defeating David Mitchell by decision. The special ops officer in Brazil has gone 4-3 through seven appearances in the UFC.
Pyle, on the other hand, had a three fight winning streak snapped in his last fight, where he was stopped by Rory MacDonald at UFC 133 in August.
UFC 142 takes place from the HSBC Arena in Rio on January 14, and will feature a Featherweight Championship bout between Jose Aldo and Chad Mendes.
