A women’s bantamweight title fight between champ Ronda Rousey and Cat Zingano has now been moved from UFC 182 to UFC 184.

UFC President Dana White today announced on Instagram that the women’s 135-pound title fight joins a headliner featuring middleweight champ Chris Weidman vs. Vitor Belfort at the Feb. 28 pay-per-view event at Los Angeles’ Staples Center.

Rousey and Zingano originally were scheduled to co-headline UFC 182 on Jan. 2 at Las Vegas’ MGM Grand Garden Arena. The reason for the switch was not given.

Earlier today, Belfort tweeted he had signed a contract for the title shot, which was delayed a second time when Weidman suffered a knee injury that forced the UFC to postpone a scheduled meeting at UFC 181 on Dec. 6 in Las Vegas.

The two originally were set to meet in May at UFC 173 before Belfort was pulled from the card in the wake of the Nevada State Athletic Commission’s ban on testosterone-replacement therapy, of which Belfort was a multi-year participant. Weidman went on to fight Lyoto Machida and earned a unanimous decision.

More on this in just a moment.
