Fresh off his Saturday win over Jason “Mayhem” Miller, Michael Bisping will meet Demian Maia in a middleweight showdown at UFC on Fox 2 on January 28 in Chicago, the UFC announced today.
Bisping (22-3) stopped his rival coach Miller via third-round TKO at The Ultimate Fighter 14 Finale for his fourth-straight win following victories over Jorge Rivera, Yoshihiro Akiyama, and Dan Miller. Maia (15-3) is 3-1 since coming up short against middleweight champion Anderson Silva early last year, including an October win over Jorge Santiago to bounce back from a loss to Mark Munoz.
UFC on Fox 2 is headlined by a pair of title eliminators between light heavyweights Rashad Evans and Phil Davis and middleweights Chael Sonnen and Mark Munoz.
