Jared Hamman vs. Kyle Noke targeted for UFC on FX 2

Two middleweights coming off recent losses have been tabbed to meet at UFC on FX 2 on March 3 in Sydney, Australia.

The MMA Corner has learned from sources close to the fight that Jared Hamman will take on Ultimate Fighter veteran Kyle Noke.

Hamman is coming off a loss at UFC 140 to Constantinos Philippou. The fighter is 1-1 since dropping to middleweight and looks to use his heavy hands to get back on track.

For Noke, he will fight in his native country for the second time with the promotion. The TUF alum was victorious in his first three fights inside the Octagon prior to succumbing to a Ed Herman heel hook in August.

The event takes place from the Allphones Arena and is headlined by a welterweight bout between Thiago Alves and Martin Kampmann.
