COLUMBUS, Ohio – After initially insisting that the fight would go on as scheduled, the Ultimate Fighting Championship has decided to move the heavyweight title unification match between champion Brock Lesnar and interim champ Frank Mir from UFC 98 on May 23 in Las Vegas to UFC 100 on July 11, also in Las Vegas.
The decision was made by UFC to flip-flop the scheduled main events of the two shows. The next Rashad Evans light heavyweight championship match, originally slated for UFC 100, will instead headline the May 23 card.
