Countdown to UFC 158: St-Pierre vs. Diaz Premieres Tuesday on FUEL TV | UFC News

 

The acclaimed Countdown show returns for UFC 158: St-Pierre vs. Diaz. The show will highlight the main event of this weekend’s event which is a highly anticipated title fight between longtime welterweight king Georges St-Pierre and polar opposite, Nick Diaz in a fight with plenty of organic hype behind it.

St-Pierre will be enjoying home field advantage as he fights in Montreal, Quebec, Canada.

The card kicks off on Facebook with subsequent preliminary action on FX and a five-fight main card on PPV at 10 p.m. ET.

UFC 158 features a plethora of welterweight talent as the co-main event seems to be nothing less than a title eliminator as Johny Hendricks takes on former number one contender, Carlos Condit. Nate Marquardt returns to the Octagon in his UFC welterweight debut to battle Jake Ellenberger.

Pay-per-view, 10 p.m. ET
