Background

The event will be the second to be broadcast as part of a seven year agreement between the UFC and Fox, and the inaugural event to air on FX.[2]

A featherweight bout between Charles Oliveira and Robert Peralta was briefly linked to this event,[3] but it was later confirmed that Oliveira would instead be facing Eric Wisely a week later at UFC on Fox: Evans vs. Davis.

Rafaello Oliveira was expected to fight Reza Madadi. However, after a hand injury, Oliveira pulled out of the bout and was replaced by Fabrício Camões.[4]

Mike Brown was expected to face Vagner Rocha, but was forced out of the bout with an injury.[5]

Ken Stone was expected to fight Mike Easton. However, an injury forced Stone to pull out.[6]

The preliminary card will air on Fuel TV.[7]

Guillard has stated that his fight with Jim Miller is a #1 contender bout. Although there is much debate to this statement. [8]
