The octagon will return to Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada on December 16 for the promotions UFC on FOX 26 fight card.<\/p>\n

The fight card is already beginning to take shape with numerous high profile fights recently being made official by the promotion.<\/p>\n

The UFC on FOX 26 event will be headlined by a welterweight scrap between former division champion Robbie Lawler squaring off with former lightweight champion Rafael dos Anjos.<\/a> <\/p>\n

UFC President Dana White has already stated that the winner of the “Ruthless” vs “RDA” fight will get the next shot at current UFC welterweight champion Tyron Woodley<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Robbie Lawler was last seen in action at July’s UFC 214 event where he scored a unanimous decision victory over a very game Donald “Cowboy” Cerrone. Lawler has won six of his past seven fights overall with his lone setback in that time coming to Tyron Woodley at UFC 201. <\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Rafael dos Anjos was most recently competed at UFC 215 in September where he scored a first-round submission victory over Neil Magny. “RDA” has gone 2-0 since moving up to the UFC’s 170-pound weight class.<\/p>\n

In the co-main event of the evening, former UFC featherweight champion Jose Aldo will look to get back in the win column when he rematches perennial contender Ricardo Lamas<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Aldo and Lamas first met at UFC 169 in February of 2014, with the Brazilian emerging victorious by way of a five-round unanimous judges decision.<\/p>\n

Jose Aldo surrendered his featherweight gold to Max Holloway in his last octagon appearance at June’s UFC 212 event by way of third-round TKO.<\/p>\n

As for Lamas, the former featherweight title challenger has scored two straight finish victories over Jason Knight (TKO) and Charles Oliveira (submission). <\/p>\n

Also featured on the card is a key light heavyweight fight between former title challenger Glover Teixeira and surging division contender Misha Cirkunov.<\/p>\n

If that wasn’t enough to get you motivated, welterweight sluggers Mike Perry and Santiago Ponzinibbio will also be throwing down at the now highly anticipated December 16 event.<\/p>\n

The current UFC on FOX 26 lineup looks as follows:<\/p>\n
