After initial plans on not airing the first two opening bouts on this Saturday’s (May 5, 2012) UFC on FOX: Diaz vs. Miller event, officials have relented to fan pressure by announcing that they have reversed their decision allowing fans a chance to catch the fights on Facebook.
The Facebook prelim matches will begin at 4pm EST (1pm PST) allowing fans a chance to catch a bantamweight bout featuring Canadians Roland Delorme vs. Nick Denis and a middleweight bout between Mike Massenzio vs. Karlos Vemola.
Fans can then turn to their television sets to catch the remaining six preliminary bouts on FUEL TV at 5pm EST (2pm PST) before catching the main card on FOX at 8pm EST.
UFC on FOX 3 is scheduled to go down this Saturday at the IZOD Center in East Rutherford, New Jersey.
