UFC 172 is coming together nicely, and another bout in the lightweight division is a nice addition to an already-stacked card. Jim Miller will look to get back into the title chase at the expense of a man that has won all of his UFC bouts to date, Bobby Green. UFC News has the, well...news:

Miller (23-4, 1 NC) is coming off a beautiful submission win over Fabricio Camoes at UFC 168. He is 12-3 with one No Contest in the UFC overall. As mentioned above, Green (22-5) has won his first three bouts in the UFC and is on an a seven-fight win streak overall. His last win came via unanimous decision over Pat Healy at UFC on Fox 9 in December.

The event takes place on April 26th in Baltimore. The headliner sees UFC light heavyweight champ Jon Jones defending his title against Glover Teixeira.
