The UFC will be back in New Jersey with a FOX event on Saturday, January 30th. In the main event, light heavyweight contenders Anthony Johnson and Ryan Bader meet in a five-round fight. Josh Barnett and Ben Rothwell will clash in the heavyweight co-main. Rounding out the main card are bantamweights Iuri Alcantara and Jimmie Rivera, and lightweight phenom Sage Northcutt against Andrew Holbrook.
I must admit, and this is only my opinion, this isn't one of the UFC's stronger looking FOX shows. But they've also churned out some great cards recently, so that should put things into perspective. There will be a six-fight preliminary card on FS1, featuring Jake Ellenberger against Tarec Saffiedine in the feature bout.
