UFC 143’s main event — Nick Diaz vs. Carlos Condit — will get the “Primetime” treatment later this month on FX and FUEL TV.
According to a network official, the UFC Primetime: Diaz vs. Condit series, will premiere Friday, Jan. 20, at 11:00 p.m. ET on FX, following UFC on FX: Miller vs. Guillard. The second episode will premiere the following week on Jan. 27 at the same time, while the third and final episode will air Feb. 3, just 24 hours before the pay-per-view event.
Replays of the show will air Jan. 24, Jan. 31 and Feb. 4 on FUEL TV.
UFC 143 airs Saturday, Feb. 4, from the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas.
This will mark the eighth installment of “UFC Primetime.” The multi-part series, which launched in Jan. 2009 for the Georges St-Pierre vs. BJ Penn rematch at UFC 94, made its debut on FOX in November to promote the Cain Velasquez vs. Junior dos Santos heavyweight title fight.
UFC Primetime will follow Condit and Diaz for three straight weeks as they prepare to fight for the UFC interim welterweight title.
Below is a look at the most recent edition of UFC Primetime.
