The first fight has been announced for the UFC’s debut on Fox.
According to mmaweekly.com, the first fight will feature a featherweight bout with Dustin “The Diamond” Poirier (10-1) taking on Pablo Garza (11-1).
Poirier comes into this fight comes into this fight on a three fight winning streak, including both of his fights in the UFC, and the featherweight division.
Many will remember Poirier for upsetting Josh Grispi at UFC 125, when Grispi was originally going to fight Jose Aldo for the Featherweight title.
Pablo Garza comes in with a 2-0 record in the UFC, and is quickly becoming one of the most exciting featherweights in the sport.
In his UFC debut, he knocked out Fredson Paixão at the TUF 13 Finale, and in his follow up fight at UFC 129, he scored a flying triangle submission.
For his efforts, he received a knockout and submission of the night.
