Former UFC light heavyweight champion Quinton “Rampage” Jackson and fast-rising contender Glover Teixeira have agreed to fight Jan. 26 in Chicago, the promotion announced Wednesday night on its website.
Jackson (32-10) and Teixeira (19-2) were originally scheduled to meet on Oct. 13 at UFC 153 in Rio de Janeiro, but an injury forced Jackson to withdraw from the bout.
The fight with Teixeira will be Jackson’s last under his current UFC contract. Jackson has vowed not to re-sign with the promotion. The bout is part of UFC on Fox 6, which will be held at United Center.
Jackson’s relationship with UFC has been strained for a while. He and Teixeira exchanged harsh words last month.
