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.
A featherweight bout between Charles Oliveira and Robert Peralta was briefly linked to this event, 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.
Mike Brown was expected to face Vagner Rocha, but was forced out of the bout with an injury. Rocha will instead face Jonathan Brookins at UFC on Fuel TV 1.
Ken Stone was expected to fight Mike Easton at this event, but was forced from the bout due to injury and replaced by promotional newcomer Jared Papazian.
UFC newcomer Ryan Jimmo was expected to face Karlos Vemola at this event, but the bout was cancelled after Jimmo fell injured a week prior to the event.
The preliminary card will air on Fuel TV.
Houston fighter Daniel Pineda (4oz Fight Club) was added to the card on January 10, 2012 and will be making his UFC debut against fellow debuting fighter Pat Schilling.
