The UFC marks its first show in Minnesota since 2008 with a stacked FX Fight Night card. Several fights from UFC 151 were moved to this card, including the new co-main event of Jay Hieron vs. Jake Ellenberger. In total there are 12 bouts, headlined by a big showdown in the heavyweight division between Travis Browne and Antonio Silva. Maybe the most important fight on the card is in the flyweight division, as Jussier da Silva makes his much anticipated debut against John Dodson.
This card has more fights than usual for a Fight Night, so it's 4 main card bouts, 6 on FUEL TV, and 2 on Facebook.
