Bloody Elbow is reporting that Nate Marquardt will take on Thales Leites in the lightweight division and that middleweights Thiago Tavares and Matt Wiman will take each other on at UFC 85 in London.

You may remember that Marquardt v. Leites was originally planned to happen at UFC 81 until Leites withdrew with an injury and Marquardt submitted his replacement Jeremy Horn.

As for Tavares v. Wiman Five Ounces of Pain has this quote from Tavares “I am very happy with the choice of this opponent because he is a tough guy who is coming off three wins in a row, and I think we will make a great fight for the public. I like to face those tougher guys, and I thought this is a great opportunity.”
