Submissions can provoke a number of reactions. For those, especially of understanding of the intricacies of the back-and-forth battle of grips, reactions and setups, the finish can be a beautiful thing.

The UFC and Spike TV on Monday made official the Fight Night 22 card for Sept. 15 in Austin, Texas.

Fight Night 22 will take place at the Frank Erwin Special Events Center on the University of Texas campus and will feature a main event middleweight fight between Demian Maia and Alan Belcher and a co-main event rematch between Mac Danzig and Matt Wiman.

The main card will air live on Spike. And as has become customary, the card is expected to serve as the lead-in for the Season 12 premiere of “The Ultimate Fighter,” which features welterweight champion Georges St-Pierre and Josh Koscheck as coaches.
