UFC Fight Night Guaranteed to Show 5 Fights

An ultra-stacked UFC Fight Night 13 event will, in fact, run three hours and will include five — possibly even six — televised fights.

Televised bouts include Kenny Florian vs. Joe Lauzon, Thiago Alves vs. Karo Parisyan, Tim Boetsch vs. Matt Hamill, Nate Diaz vs. Kurt Pellegrino, and Houston Alexander vs. James Irvin.

The Frankie Edgar, Gray Maynard bout is listed as the swing bout. Meaning that it will be televised if time is permitted. Basically we have to root for lots of knockouts.

The event features a record 12 fights — and it’s possibly the deepest fight card in Spike TV history. In fact, the card is so deep that MMA fans began an email and letter-writing campaign to Spike TV to formally request that the event run three hours instead of the normal two.

Here is the full card:
