SIR
Not familiar with Izi Garcia w/MMA-Today, so reliability may be a bit sketchy until we can get some other confirmations.
Multiple sources have confirmed to MMA Today that a light heavyweight clash between Corey “Beastin 25/8” Anderson (9-3) and Tyson Pedro (6-0) is being targeted for July 22nd in New York.
The July card in New York will be the first event the UFC has held on Long Island.
Corey Anderson is looking to rebound after a devastating loss to Jimi Manuwa in London. Corey headlined the event against Manuwa and looked to use a lot of movement against the English fighter. But it only took Manuwa one left hook to finish Anderson.
Tyson Pedro is on a two fight win streak in the UFC and has never seen the second round in his entire professional career.
I know that Corey Anderson had been linked as a potential short notice replacement to face Ilir Latifi in Oklahoma City next month. Latifi will probably be pulled and rescheduled for another event, most likely Rotterdam.
