Phillipe Nover vs Rob Emerson Set for UFC 109
 Date submitted: 02 November 2009
Author: MMAjunkie.com Staff
The UFC's annual Super Bowl weekend card has another addition following the booking of a lightweight bout between Phillipe Nover and Rob Emerson.
A source close to one of the competitors confirmed with MMA Junkie that the fight has been signed.
UFC 109 takes place Feb. 6 in Las Vegas. As MMA Junkie reported last week, the event likely takes place at the Mandalay Bay Events Center and airs on pay-per-view.
No main event has been determined for the show.
Nover, the lightweight runner-up on "The Ultimate Fighter 8," could be fighting for his life in the organization. The native New Yorker and Brazilian jiu-jitsu black belt dropped a unanimous decision to Efrain Escudero at the live finale for "TUF 8" and then dropped a first-round TKO to Kyle Bradley at UFC 98: Evans vs Machida in May.
Nover was then slated to fight Sam Stout at UFC: Ultimate Fight Night 19 in September. However, on the day of the fight, Nover suffered a seizure in his dressing room and was pulled from the card. He's since been cleared to resume training.
Emerson, meanwhile, looks to get back on track following back-to-back losses to Kurt Pellegrino (submission) and Rafael dos Anjos (decision) in his two most recent bouts. Prior to the skid, Emerson, a cast member on "The Ultimate Fighter 5," fought Gray Maynard to a no-contest at the show's live finale before posting a pair of victories over Keita Nakamura (decision) and Manny Gamburyan (knockout).
Prior to the losses, Emerson, who began his career with a 2-6 mark, went 6-0 (with the no-decision) during a seven-fight stretch.
