The UFC Middleweight Championship rematch between Chael Sonnen and Anderson Silva is indeed moving to UFC 148 in Las Vegas on July 7. The official announcement will be made at a press conference in Brazil at 11AM ET this morning, but the set up for the press conference is set up with insignia for "UFC 148: Silva vs. Sonnen," on "SATURDAY JULY 7."

As for what will happen with the UFC 147 card in Brazil, we'll have more on that following the press conference. For now, Silva-Sonnen II is a lock for Las Vegas, and takes over the headlining slot from the Urijah Faber-Dominick Cruz rematch.
