There have been some rumors of Giorgio Petrosyan fighting on New Year's Eve on the big GLORY/DREAM card, but now we've just learned of a fight for "The Doctor" that is scheduled for next year.

Petrosyan will fight Ole Laursen, current OneFC MMA fighter who fought numerous times in K-1, with the likes of Buakaw Por. Pramuk, Masato and Andy Souwer. Laursen posted a promotional poster for the fight on his Facebook.

The fight takes place on March 2 in Trieste, Italy, which is quite close to Petrosyan's home of Gorizia. The fight takes place at the Palatrieste, which holds up to about 7000 people.

Petrosyan recently won the GLORY 3 Rome Final 8, where he defeated Ky Hollenbeck, Davit Kiria and Robin van Roosmalen in one night to capture the $300 000 prize. Laursen most recently fought on March 31, where he won a split decision over Eduard Folayang in MMA at OneFC 3.

No further details on the card are available, but we'll keep you posted.
