Roger Gracie will make his middleweight debut this July, as MMAFighting.com reports that he'll take on Keith Jardine at an as-of-yet unannounced event, possibly in Portland, Oregon.
Gracie returns to action for the first time since last September, where he suffered his first career loss to Muhammed "King Mo" Lawal. That defeat has prompted the move down to middleweight for the first time in his career.
Jardine made his own middleweight debut in January, losing to Strikeforce Middleweight Champion Luke Rockhold by TKO in the first round. That loss snapped a three fight unbeaten streak.
