The grudge match is coming, and FX is going to document the buildup.

In advance of their UFC 145 light heavyweight title fight, UFC champ Jon Jones and former title holder Rashad Evans will be featured in an upcoming edition of "UFC Primetime," a three-part special that airs on FX.

The first episode airs Friday, April 6, at 11 p.m. ET, with subsequent episodes premiering in the same timeslot on April 13 and April 20.

Replays of each episode air on FUEL TV.

"UFC 145: Jones vs. Evans" takes place April 21 at Atlanta's Philips Arena. The night's main card airs on pay-per-view.

Jones and Evans, former friends and training partners, have already waged a very public battle of words, and the tension is expected to build as the fight nears.

Jones, of course, fought most recently in December, downing former champion Lyoto Machida in impressive fashion and bringing to a close one of the most impressive calendar years in MMA history. After the fight, Jones expressed his desire to take a few months off. However, that plan quickly changed.

Meanwhile, Evans has now earned four-straight wins since losing the light heavyweight title to Machida in May 2009. "Suga" downed Phil Davis, Tito Ortiz, Quinton "Rampage" Jackson and Thiago Silva to earn his way back to a title challenge.
