With Yoel Romero forced out of his UFC on FOX bout against fellow contender Ronaldo "Jacare" Souza on April 18 in Newark, New Jersey due to injury, Colorado veteran Chris Camozzi will return to the Octagon on one week's notice to face the Brazilian submission machine in a rematch of their 2013 bout. Winner of two straight, both by first-round finish, since his last UFC appearance in September of 2014, Camozzi is determined to reverse the result of his loss to the number one-ranked Souza next week at Prudential Center.
