The UFC’s traditional pre-event show returns later this month with the debut of “Countdown to UFC 147: Silva vs. Franklin II” on FUEL TV.
The hour-long special debuts June 19 at 9 p.m. ET (6 p.m. PT).
UFC 147 takes place June 23 at Estadio Jornalista Felipe Drumond (also known as “Mineirinho”) in Belo Horizonte, Brazil. Former UFC middleweight champion Rich Franklin rematches Wanderlei Silva in the five-round 190-pound-catchweight headliner.
