Fans wondering why Cain Velasquez and Junior Dos Santos are the two fighters that will highlight the UFC on Fox debut this weekend? Let UFC President Dana White explain it to you:

“You want to go with your best foot forward for your first fight and to deliver the UFC heavyweight championship on free TV… like I've said, it's been my goal as a promoter to bring big fights back to TV and to bring big fights back to cities that they haven't been in in a long time. And if you gotta go with the UFC heavyweight championship, you definitely want these two athletes in there. Stylistically, this is a great match-up as far as the fight goes. These guys are both non-stop and both guys always try to finish, so yes, it makes all the sense in the world.”
