As if The Ultimate Fighter 20 Finale on Friday wasn’t enough, the Octagon is primed for a quick turnaround, as UFC on Fox 13 will air this Saturday, December 13.

The card is bursting at the seams, with 13 clashes on the ledger (no word yet on whether the No. 13 is mere coincidence, homage to Dan Marino or something more sinister), with four scraps composing the main card.

The UFC on Fox 13 main card includes:

  • Junior dos Santos vs. Stipe Miocic
  • Rafael dos Anjos vs. Nate Diaz
  • Alistair Overeem vs. Stefan Struve
  • Gabriel Gonzaga vs. Matt Mitrione

Among this quartet are some influential bouts in the heavyweight division, as well as a meaningful fight at 155 pounds. There is no shortage of import to be found within the main card, but rankings and title implications are just the tip of the iceberg.

What’s really at stake this Saturday? Well, as the penultimate event of 2014, UFC on Fox 13 stands as a pivotal moment in the main card staff prediction series, which is coming down to the wire.
