The Ultimate Fighting Championship continues to round out the line-up for its May 18th, UFC on FX 8 event in Brazil, as according to multiple reports, Roger Gracie will fight Tim Kennedy and C.B. Dollaway will battle Cezar Ferreira at the event.

The middleweight bouts are being reported by Brazilian publications Tatame.com and Porto de Vale Tudo.

Gracie (6-1) is coming off a second round, arm-triangle-choke submission win over Anthony Smith in January, while Kennedy (15-4) earned a tap-out victory with a guillotine choke against Trevor Smith.

Dollaway (13-4) scored a split decision win over Daniel Sarafian at UFC on FX 7 in January, while Ferreira (5-2) hasn’t fought since last June, when he scored a UD victory over Sergio Moraes to win TUF Brazil.

UFC on FX 8 will be hosted by the Arena Jaragua in Jaragua do Sul, Santa Catarina, and will feature Vitor Belfort versus former Strikeforce champ Luke Rockhold in the main event.
