This shouldn’t come as a surprise to fans of the Ultimate Fighting Championship.
The promotion is set to stream eight bouts on Facebook.com/UFC this Sunday evening for the upcoming UFC on Versus 5 event.
UFC Live: Hardy vs. Lytle (aka UFC on Versus 5) is scheduled to take place on Sunday, August 14, at the Bradley Center in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The card features a total of twelve bouts with a four bout main card airing live on the Versus network.
Headlining the preliminary card is a middlweight bout between C.B. Dollaway and Jared Hamman. Dollaway had a three fight win streak cut short by Mark Munoz in March at the UFC on Versus 3 event, while Hamman is 1-2 in his last three fights, losing to Kyle Kingsbury at UFC Fight Night 22 in September.
Hamman makes his middleweight debut against Dollaway and also carries back-to-back “Fight of the Night” bonuses into the Octagon.
The live Facebook bouts represent the eight consecutive UFC event that the promotion has offered free fights for fans beginning with last April’s UFC 129 event.
