See you in "Music City."
Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) recently announced a pair of upcoming bouts for its UFC on FX network debut, which is tentatively scheduled for Jan. 20, 2012, at the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, Tennessee.
Steve Cofield of Yahoo! Sports brought word of the date and location back on Wednesday.
Also fighting for a spot on the roster -- albeit a much higher one -- is Josh Neer (32-10-1). The welterweight "Dentist" has strung together five straight wins, all of them stoppages, including a technical knockout finish over Keith Wisniewski just last month.
He'll get his favorite type of opponent after the new year, someone who likes to stand and "Bang," as Duane Ludwig (21-11) is riding high after outperforming Nick Osipczak and Amir Sadollah in recent bouts.
Stay tuned to MMAmania.com for more details on the UFC on FX debut, which is part of the promotion's seven year, $100 million broadcast agreement with the FOX network, as they become available.
