The UFC's July 16 event at the Revel Casino in Atlantic City will get an exciting jolt of welterweight action as veteran standouts Rick "The Horror" Story and John "Doomsday" Howard have verbally agreed to meet on the UFC Fight Night card.

With both fighters coming off close losses, Story to Kelvin Gastelum at UFC 171 and Howard to Ryan LaFlare at UFC Fight Night in Abu Dhabi, there's plenty on the line for both 170-pounders.
