If UFC contender Josh Koscheck thought he had it
bad in his first trip to Montreal, imagine how it will feel fighting
hometown hero Georges St-Pierre.

On Thursday, the UFC’s “Ultimate Insider” series officially announced
that previous reports of a return trip to Montreal’s Bell Centre were
indeed true, and the massive arena will play host to UFC 124 on Dec. 11.

Early reports had suggested the fight would take place in Las Vegas, but
UFC officials looked to capitalize on St-Pierre’s popularity in his
hometown. Ticketing information for the event has yet to be released.
