UFC officials announced that a lightweight bout featuring Sam “Hands of Stone” Stout (19-9-1 MA, 8-8 UFC) and Cody McKenzie (14-3 MMA, 3-3 UFC) is the latest addition to the “UFC on FOX 9” card, set for December 14 in Sacramento.<\/p>\n

The “TUF 12” veteran, Cody McKenzie, got back in the win column in April with a unanimous decision win over Leonard Garcia. Prior to his bout with “Bad Boy,” McKenzie suffered a 31-second TKO loss to Chad “Money” Mendes at UFC 148 in Las Vegas, in\u00a0a fight that\u00a0served as McKenzie’s featherweight debut. After a two-fight stint at 145-pounds, McKenzie will now return to the lightweight division when he faces Stout.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Canadian Sam Stout will be looking to get back in the win column following his third-round submission loss to James Krause at UFC 161 in Winnipeg. “Hands of Stone” went an impressive\u00a04-1 inside the octagon between 2009 – 2011. However, since the beginning of 2012,\u00a0Stout has gone just 2-3 under the Zuffa banner. The hard-hitting Canadian has been awared “Fight of the night” honors 6 times during his UFC career.<\/p>\n

UFC on FOX 9 takes place December 14\u00a0live from the\u00a0Sleep Train Arena in Sacramento, California. The evening’s main card airs on FOX following prelims\u00a0which air on FOX Sports 1 and Facebook. The McKenzie vs. Stout fight will be part of the night’s preliminary card. UFC on FOX 9 is headlined by a lightweight title fight between current champ Anthony Pettis and challenger Josh Thomson.<\/p>\n
