It's time to settle the score.

One month after their first bout led to a highly controversial decision at The Ultimate Fighter 12 Finale, Leonard Garcia (15-6-1 MMA, 2-2 UFC) and Nam Phan (16-8 MMA, 0-1 UFC) will meet again at UFC Fight Night 24.

Sources close to the event today told MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com) that verbal agreements are in place with paperwork being finalized for the featherweight bout, which MMAWeekly.com first reported.

UFC Fight Night 24 takes place March 26 at Seattle's Key Center and airs live on Spike TV.

Nam vs. Garcia II likely will be part of the televised main card.

Nams gonna try and finish him this time. Don't think he'll ever trust the judges again

This, by booking a rematch it's like saying the first fight was close. Nam should fight tougher competition and Garcia should be fighting for his spot in the UFC.

Pay up what you owe and you'll never hear a peep out of me again. Until then, every thread I see you on, the conversation is going to turn into the fact that you are a pathetic pissant who cannot scrape up $50 to pay up a lost wager like a man would pay.
