The UFC’s groundbreaking deal with FOX is officially under way. This Saturday, the world’s largest MMA organization will provide its first multifight card on network television.
The event’s main card will feature a middleweight clash and two additional fights that will determine the top contenders in the middleweight and light heavyweight divisions.
Originally scheduled to fight Michael Bisping, Demian Maia will now attempt to keep the up-and-coming Chris Weidman out of the middleweight title hunt.
As a result of a Mark Munoz injury, Bisping was moved to a co-main event tilt against Chael Sonnen. According to UFC president Dana White, the winner of said bout will move on to a title fight against 185-pound champion Anderson Silva.
