After winning the interim title in Mexico, Fabricio Werdum will likely get a chance to unify the UFC heavyweight belts back there in June.

UFC President Dana White confirmed the tentative plans during Monday’s “UFC: The Time Is Now” press conference in Las Vegas. During the fan and media event, the organization laid out its full 2015 schedule, and White suggested a Mexico event will take place in June.

Werdum (19-5-1 MMA, 7-2 UFC) scored a second-round TKO victory over Mark Hunt this past weekend at UFC 180 in Mexico City, which marked the UFC’s debut in the country. Hunt replaced reigning champ Cain Velasquez (13-1 MMA, 11-1 UFC), who suffered a knee injury three weeks prior to pay-per-view event, and ultimately lost to Werdum.

With Werdum next up for Velasquez, who’s making a steady recovery from a torn meniscus and sprained MCL, White said the fight makes sense in Mexico. With Velasquez, whose parents were born in Mexico, being a key to the UFC’s growth in the country – and with Werdum gaining a big fan following at UFC 180 – he expects it to be a major show.

Currently, the UFC’s lone PPV event in June, UFC 188, is slated for June 13, though officials haven’t confirmed it’ll take place in Mexico.

But what if Velasquez isn’t ready with that timeline?

“Cain’s going to make it,” he promised.

Velasquez, currently ranked No. 1 in the USA TODAY Sports/MMAjunkie MMA heavyweight rankings (and No. 6 pound-for-pound), hasn’t fought since an October 2013 win over Junior Dos Santos. It marked the 32-year-old’s fourth straight win and second consecutive title defense.

Werdum, ranked No. 3, has won five straight UFC fights since a defeat to Alistair Overeem in his final Strikeforce bout back in 2011.
