\nA middleweight bout featuring former Strikeforce champ Nate Marquardt taking on Brad Tavares is the latest addition to January’s UFC 182 event in Las Vegas.<\/p>\n

UFC officials confirmed the booking yesterday evening.<\/p>\n

Nate Marquardt (33-13-2 MMA, 11-6 UFC) returned to the middleweight division this past June, where he scored a “Performance of the night” submission win over James Te Huna at UFC Fight Night 43 in New Zealand. Prior to that, Marquardt had dropped 3 straight fights at 170-pounds, including back-to-back knockout losses to Jake Ellenberger and Hector Lombard.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Hawaiian-native Brad Tavares (12-3 MMA, 7-3 UFC) will be looking to rebound out of 2-fight losing skid when he faces Marquardt this June in Sin City. After stringing together 5-straight octagon victories, Tavares has since dropped back-to-back fights to Yoel Romero and most recently Tim Boetsch.<\/p>\n

UFC 182 takes place January 3 live from Las Vegas\u2019 MGM Grand Garden Arena. The main card airs on pay-per-view following the prelims which are set for FOX Sports 1 and UFC Fight Pass.<\/p>\n

The event is headlined by a light heavyweight title fight featuring champ Jon Jones taking on Daniel Cormier.<\/p>\n
