08:16 AM ET 03.05 | Reports have surfaced that the Ultimate Fighting Championship will be hosting a June 15 event in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada, that will feature a bout between light-heavyweight stars Rashad Evans and Dan Henderson. Evans is on a two-fight win streak after dropping consecutive bouts to light-heavyweight champion Jon Jones and a controversial decision loss to Antonio Rogerio Nogueira this past February. Henderson was riding a four-fight win streak heading into his Feb. 23 match at UFC 157: Rousey vs. Carmouche before suffering a split-decision loss to Lyoto Machida, who is now next in line for the 205-pound title.
