Jan has named the date of the fight with Vera

Peter Yan, former UFC lightweight champion, has named a date for a possible fight with Marlon Vera.

"I have two months and ten days after surgery, the recovery is going according to plan. Everything is good, so we're not forcing things and we're going clearly on schedule. I plan to be back before the end of the year, hopefully everything will work out. That's November-December. Vera likes to talk, now he has a fight in August. I told him he's "chasing air". And also that if we had the fight earlier, he would never have fought for the title. But until November-December there is time, we'll see".
