On Saturday, January 26, the UFC heads to Chicago for a highly anticipated Fox card headlined by the Flyweight Championship bout between Demetrious Johnson and John Dodson.

In the co-main event, Quinton “Rampage” Jackson will look to exit the UFC on a high note against the surging Glover Teixeira.

Many fans are looking forward to an explosive contest between Anthony Pettis and Donald Cerrone, which is also on this Fox card.

Matt Wiman and TJ Grant will meet at UFC on Fox 6 this weekend from the windy city of Chicago, with the winner getting a foot in the door of the lightweight contenders.

Any fight involving these two is an unpredictable and action packed affair so I can’t imagine what will happen when they actually face each other. This fight should run neck and neck with Cerrone-Pettis fro Fight of The Night this weekend.

Here is a head-to-toe breakdown between two of the hungriest lightweights in the world.

Finally, the UFC brings another free title fight to national television as two of the fastest men in the Octagon battle for the flyweight championship at UFC on Fox 6.

This Saturday at the United Center in Chicago, Demetrious Johnson will make his first 125-pound title defense against The Ultimate Fighter 14 winner John Dodson. Both men have significant speed, but the real battle may come down to Johnson’s wrestling vs. Dodson’s knockout power.

In the co-main event, the arguable “real star” of the show could be seeing his last UFC fight as MMA legend Quinton Jackson takes on Brazilian slugger Glover Teixeira.

Additional fireworks are guaranteed in the next match on the main card, as Donald Cerrone battles in a lightweight title eliminator against Anthony Pettis. Both men are two of the sport’s most exciting fighters and carry plenty of experience as former WEC champions.

Finally, featherweights Erik Koch and Ricardo Lamas will be making their case for title shots in the 145-pound division, as they’ll open the Fox broadcast on Jan. 26.

Read along with the B/R MMA team as Jonathan Snowden, Scott Harris, Sean Smith, John Heinis, Kyle Symes and McKinley Noble make their official main card predictions for UFC on Fox 6.

Demetrious Johnson’s first title defense as UFC flyweight champion will come against The Ultimate Fighter winner John Dodson on network television at UFC on Fox 6 on Saturday.

Johnson earned his belt in September with a win in a closely contested championship bout with Joseph Benavidez. Dodson, meanwhile, separated himself as Johnson’s first challenger by knocking out highly touted UFC newcomer Jussier Formiga.

In addition to the 125-pound title fight, UFC on Fox 6 will also feature two potential title-shot eliminators.

At lightweight, former WEC stars Anthony Pettis and Donald Cerrone will battle for a potential rematch with UFC lightweight titleholder Benson Henderson. Additionally, elite featherweights Erik Koch and Ricardo Lamas will try to separate themselves from the pack of contenders at 145 pounds.

The event could also mark the end of Quinton Jackson‘s time with the organization, as he will complete the final fight on his current UFC contract.

Before Saturday’s event, which will take place at the United Center in Chicago, the fighters will hit the scales on Friday at 5 p.m. ET. Video of the weigh-ins will be streamed live on the above video player.
