After their first bout ended in a controversial no-contest result, Roger Bowling and Abel Trujillo will meet for a second time.

UFC officials today announced the lightweights will rematch at December’s UFC on FOX 9 event.

Featuring a stacked lineup that includes a headlining contest between UFC lightweight champ Anthony Pettis and challenger Josh Thomson, UFC on FOX 9 takes place on Dec. 14 at Sleep Train Arena in Sacramento, Calif.

The evening’s main card airs on FOX following prelims that air on FOX Sports 1 and stream on Facebook. The exact positioning of the Bowling (11-4 MMA, 0-0 UFC) vs. Trujillo (10-5 MMA, 1-1 UFC) matchup was not revealed but is expected to take place on the night’s preliminary card.

Bowling and Trujillo first met at August’s UFC Fight Night 27 event. The bout ended controversially in the second round when Trujillo scored with a knee to the body just as Bowling was climbing off the canvas. The blow appeared to land to the chin, though replays later showed it was more of a grazing blow. Nevertheless, referee Rob Hinds ruled the blow illegal, and when Bowling could not continue, the fight was ruled a no contest.

After the fight, Bowling told MMAjunkie.com Radio he was hoping for a rematch, and his wish has now been granted.

“You saw the tape – he kneed me right in the chin and followed it up with a sucker punch and cut me on my right eye,” Bowling said. “I get so mad when I watch it – I have so much hate in my heart for him. I hope I’m standing across from him again, because I’ll put his head into the third row – I promise.”

With the addition to the card, the UFC on FOX 9 lineup now includes:

Champ Anthony Pettis vs. Josh Thomson – for UFC lightweight title Urijah Faber vs. Michael McDonald Matt Brown vs. Carlos Condit Nik Lentz vs. Chad Mendes Mac Danzig vs. Joe Lauzon Scott Jorgensen vs. Ian McCall Edson Barboza vs. Danny Castillo Kelvin Gastelum vs. Court McGee John Moraga vs. Darren Uyenoyama Roger Bowling vs. Abel Trujillo
