Since returning to the UFC in August of 2013, Howard has gone 2-2, which includes a win over highly touted middleweight Uriah Hall.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Lorenz Larkin (14-4 MMA, 1-4 UFC) will likely be fighting for his job when he makes his welterweight debut against Howard this January in Beantown. &#8220;The Monsoon&#8221; has lost 3 straight fights and four of his past five overall. Prior to joining the UFC as part of the Strikeforce merger, Larkin was sporting an undefeated record, which included a unanimous decision win over current UFC welterweight title contender Robbie Lawler.<\/p>\n<p>UFC Fight Night 59 takes place January 18 live from Boston&#8217;s TD Garden.
