Steadily gathering momentum in winning his last two fights by stoppage, Anthony “Rumble” Johnson is set to make it three straight wins when he takes on Japanese Judo fighter Yoshiyuki Yoshida at UFC 104 in Los Angeles.

According to MMAJunkie, a source close to the fight has disclosed that the pair have verbally agreed to fight at UFC 104 in October, and that bout agreements are “in the process of being finalized.”
