Former number one heavyweight contender Gabriel Gonzaga (9-3) could return to action against Josh Hendricks (14-4) at UFC 91 in Portland, Ore., on November 15, according to FiveOuncesOfPain.com.
"Napao" recently snapped a skid that included back-to-back losses, submitting Justin McCully with a first round kimura at UFC 86: "Jackson vs. Griffin" in July.
With four straight wins to begin his career inside the Octagon, including a sensational (and at the time unlikely) knockout of Mirko Cro Cop with a headkick, Gonzaga then dropped tough bouts to Randy Couture and Fabricio Werdum.
The Brazilian will now look to string together consecutive wins and get back in the title chase.
Hendricks is on a tear, winning his last nine fights with a mix of submissions and (technical) knockouts in smaller promotions throughout the Midwest. The Ohio-based fighting veteran has notable losses to former UFC fighters Sam Hoger and Travis Wiuff earlier in his career.
The only other match up confirmed thus far for UFC 91 is a lightweight battle between Kenny Florian and Joe Stevenson; however, there is a gigantic wave of speculation that Randy Couture will return to action near his hometown to take on Brock Lesnar, settling an 11-month feud with the organization about his fighting future.
An announcement regarding Couture is expected later this afternoon at 3 p.m. ET.
