The UFC today announced a 12-fight card in Brazil for Jan. 19, though the host city and venue are still to be determined and, the UFC said, will be announced soon. The four-fight main card is likely to air on either FX or FUEL TV.

Headlining the event will be a middleweight bout between recent light heavyweight title challenger and former middleweight title challenger Vitor Belfort (21-10) and Michael Bisping (23-4).

In the co-main event, C.B. Dollaway (12-4) returns for the first time since a May win over Jason “Mayhem” Miller and takes on Daniel Sarafian (7-2 MMA), who reached the finals of the first season of “The Ultimate Fighter: Brazil,” but couldn’t fight due to a training injury. He’ll make his official UFC debut in front of his home country after recently getting clearance to begin training again.
