Though the UFC still hasn't officially confirmed the reported UFC 143 bout between Fabricio Werdum and Roy Nelson, both fighters took to Twitter on Tuesday to confirm that they are, indeed, facing one another at the event.
Werdum returns to the UFC for the first time since his knockout loss to a then-debuting Junior dos Santos at UFC 90 in 2008. He won three straight in Strikeforce, including an at-the-time shocking upset of Fedor Emelianenko, but lost his last bout in the organization to Alistair Overeem.
Nelson halted a two-fight losing in his last fight, stopping Mirko Cro Cop in the third round at UFC 137. The Ultimate Fighter season 10 winner is now 3-2 overall in his UFC career.
