Televised Card Released for UFC Fight Night 12

The UFC has announced the full fight card, including the list of televised bouts, for UFC Fight Night 12, which takes place Jan. 23 at The Palms Las Vegas and airs live on Spike TV.

The event is headlined by two of the more successful fighters to come out of “The Ultimate Fighter” reality series: season one veteran Mike Swick (10-2 MMA, 5-1 UFC) and season two’s Josh Burkman (9-4 MMA, 5-2 UFC). Swick, who appeared as a 205-pounder during “The Ultimate Fighter” and went on to become a top-ranked middleweight contender, makes his debut at 170 pounds.

UFC Fight Night 12 features a total of four televised bouts, though additional fights could be worked into the telecast on a tape-delay basis. Unfortunately, one very intriguing lightweight fight — Cole Miller vs. Jeremy Stephens — has been stuck on the night’s un-televised preliminary card.

The full fight card for the event includes:

MAIN CARD

* Josh Burkman vs. Mike Swick
* Patrick Côté vs. Drew McFedries
* Nate Diaz vs. Alvin Robinson
* Thiago Tavares vs. Michihiro Omigawa

PRELIMINARY CARD

* Alberto Crane vs. Kurt Pellegrino
