The UFC has an absolutely stacked December planned, and fortunately for the average man who isn’t defecating greenbacks, three of four events are free. Just about every card headed our way inside the next month boasts some highly intriguing marquee fights, and quite a few of these bouts have major, major implications behind them.

This Saturday brings the first of four events, as Ben Henderson will aim to defend his lightweight crown against the always dangerous Nick Diaz in a promising main event.

Six days later we’ll see George Sotiropoulos and Ross Pearson headline the UFC on FX 6 card, and the following night it’s more action: The finale of The Ultimate Fighter Season 16 unfolds with Roy Nelson tapped to meet Matt Mitrione as the card’s top-liner.

But the action doesn’t stop there. The UFC will usher 2012 out of the door on December 29th with UFC 155, a pretty stacked card featuring a handful of enticing matches and, of course, the much anticipated rematch between heavyweight champion, Junior dos Santos, and the former champ, Cain Velasquez.
