The UFC is headed to Vancouver, BC for just the third time in its history, and for the first time there will be a championship on the line. Flyweight stalwart Demetrious Johnson has finished his last two opponents and has defended his belt successfully three times. Ali Bagautinov stands in the way of Mighty Mouse just about establishing himself as one of the sport's dominant champions. Co-headlining is a huge welterweight fight between BC's own Rory MacDonald and Tyron Woodley, whose ascendancy up the rankings has been as rapid as that of his fellow Strikeforce counterpart Robbie Lawler.
Rounding out the main card is Andrei Arlovski's UFC return against Brendan Schaub, plus Ryan Bader versus Rafael Feijao, and Ryan Jimmo against Ovince Saint Preux.
Programming note: Fox Sports 1 is airing NASCAR, Fox Sports 2 is airing 24 Hours of Le Mans, so the prelims are on FX. It's like we never left 2012!
