The dream has come true for UFC fans and the owners of the company - the UFC will air on network TV for the first time on November 12th. Dana White decided to go all out for the one-hour special that will air on Fox and only put one guaranteed fight on the card, and what a fight it it. UFC heavyweight champion Cain Velasquez will defend his title against number one contender Junior dos Santos. The other major interesting bout is the probable number one contenders lightweight matchup between former WEC champion Ben Henderson and Clay Guida.
The rest of the card, which so far consists of four fights all at lightweight or below, will air in some other form that hasn't been decided on by the organization as of yet. Here is the card as it stands right now.

Video Promo for Velasquez vs Dos Santos Network TV Debut
The UFC will make its long awaited debut on network TV on Nov. 12 when it brings a heavyweight championship showdown to Anaheim, California, on FOX.
Cain Velasquez will make his first defense of the title he ripped away from Brock Lesnar against number one contender and noted knockout artist Junior dos Santos.
Remember, though, this is just a taste of what's to come. The one-hour primetime special on Nov. 12 is simply an appetizer for the deal that will kick in starting in January of next year. UFC President Dana White has promised a completely different look to his product and we're getting a peak at that with these promos for the debut show.
