In 2011, Maynard battled Frankie Edgar to a draw in a featherweight title bout at UFC 125 before suffering a fourth-round knockout loss to “The Answer” in another championship clash at UFC 136. Maynard has fallen on hard times of late, however, losing his last four bouts — including three by technical knockout.
Bruno, meanwhile, made his first promotional foray at UFC 190, where he was submitted in the third round by Glaico Franca. The 34-year-old Brazilian is 15-3 in his pro career, including eight triumphs via tapout.
