UFC President Dana White Tweeted (@danawhite) that message on Thursday evening, promising a major announcement for this Friday, September 2, at 1PM EST (10PM PST).
No other clues other than announcing the main event for the UFC’s first event on FOX television were provided by the promotions President.
White had mentioned that one of the fighters from this past weekends UFC 134 event in Rio de Janeiro event would likely be involved with the FOX card.
Some speculation is the participation of former UFC champ Mauricio ‘Shogun’ Rua, who escaped relatively unscathed against Forrest Griffin, or the possibility that the UFC had signed former Strikeforce heavyweight champ Alistair Overeem.
I guess fans will have to wait for Friday’s 1PM press conference.
