The evenings co-main event is for the UFC Bantamweight title and will be the trilogy fight between bitter rivials Dominick Curz & Urijah Faber. The 1st meeting was way back in March of 2007 when Faber submitted Cruz to retain his Featherweight title at WEC 26. The 2nd installment came in July of 2011 with Cruz winning a unanimous decision to retain his UFC Bantamweight title. Since that meeting Faber has went 8-3, losing a pair of title fights to Renan Barao. Following the 2nd fight Cruz successfully defend the title against Demetrious Johnson.
