UFC veterans and onetime opponents Joe Lauzon and Jim Miller will clash once again at UFC on FOX 21.
UFC officials announced the bout on the official UFC website.
UFC on FOX 21 takes place Aug. 27 at Rogers Arena in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. The bout order has not been set.
Miller (26-8 MMA, 15-7 UFC) took a unanimous decision over Lauzon (26-11 MMA, 13-8 UFC) when the two first met at UFC 155 in December 2012. The highly entertaining fight won the UFC.com “Fight of the Year” award.
Lauzon is coming off a stunningly dominant win over Diego Sanchez at UFC 200, a TKO stoppage in just 86 seconds. The post-fight bonus magnet is 3-2 in his five most recent bouts.
Miller said he was ready to retire before he said a Lyme disease diagnosis turned his life around. He snapped a two-fight losing skid with a first-round TKO of veteran Takanori Gomi at UFC 200.

Charles Oliveira vs. Anthony Pettis
Alessio Di Chirico vs. Garreth McLellan
