For the second straight time on the Fox Network, a UFC championship will be defended in the main event as Demetrious Johnson defends the UFC Flyweight Title. Originally, there were two bouts set for the Facebook portion of the preliminary card, but a bout between Michael Kuiper and Josh Janousek was scratched due to injury. Instead, we just get a single fight airing on Facebook, but it is definitely one to pay attention to in the middleweight division.
Our lone Facebook Preliminary Card fight takes place in the middleweight division as Rafael “Sapo†Natal (14-4-1) faces Sean “Black Magic†Spencer (9-1-0). Natal has won two of his last three entering this fight, most notably defeating Paul Bradley back at UFC 133. Spencer will be making his UFC debut in this fight, but he does so on the strength of a three fight winning streak. Spencer is definitely worthy of an opportunity in the UFC, but Natal is a far more dangerous fighter and he will get the victory.
