By FCF Staff   The Ultimate Fighting Championship has added a welterweight bout between former “Ultimate Fighter” winner Amir Sadollah and veteran Peter Sobotta to the line-up for the promotion’s upcoming November 13th event in Oberhausen, Germany. UFC 122, which will be hosted by the Konig Pilsener Arena, will be headlined by a middleweight bout between top contenders Nate Marquardt and Yushin Okami.

Sadollah (3-2) is coming off a Unanimous Decision loss to the undefeated Dong Hyun Kim in May, after earning back-to-back UD victories over Phil Baroni and more recently, Brad Blackburn.

Sobotta (8-3) will be looking to end a two fight losing skid, as the German fighter has lost by decision to Paul Taylor and James Wilks, since signing with the UFC last year. Prior to his Octagon debut, Sobotta had won 4 straight fights and had lost just once since 2004.
