  - DREW MCFEDRIES VS. TOMASZ DRWAL AT UFC 103
Monday, July 13, 2009 - by Steven Marrocco - MMAWeekly.com
A middleweight contest between Drew McFedries and Tomasz Drawl is on tap for UFC 103 on Sept. 19 in Dallas, MMAWeekly.com has learned from sources close to the fight.
The UFC has yet to make its second trip to the Lone Star State official, but the American Airlines Center is expected to host.
Drwal (16-2-1) will make the cut to middleweight for the first time in the UFC. The "Gorilla" recently dispatched Mike Ciesnolevicz at the season nine finale of "The Ultimate Fighter" in his second straight Octagon victory.
Drwal is currently in his native country of Poland and will return shortly to begin training.
McFedries (8-5) is coming off a 37-second destruction of Xavier Foupa-Pokam at UFC 98, his ninth straight appearance to end in the first round. The win reversed a two-fight slide to former contender Thales Leites and Mike Massenzio.
McFedries is currently searching for a new training camp after his post-fight comments brought him a dismissal from trainer Pat Miletich's MFS Elite team in Bettendorf, Iowa.
