Press tours are nothing new for the UFC and its event headliners. But later this month, the promotion will take things to a new level. The UFC will take the headliners for UFC 165, UFC 166, UFC 167 and UFC 168 on a “UFC World Tour” that spans five countries over five days. And many of the events will be free and open for the public to attend. UFC officials on Friday announced the tour, which will feature heavyweight champion Cain Velasquez and challenger Junior dos Santos ; light heavyweight champ Jon Jones and challenger Alexander Gustafsson ; welterweight titleholder Georges St-Pierre and challenger Johny Hendricks ; and women’s bantamweight champ Ronda Rousey and challenger Miesha Tate . UFC 165 takes place Sept.
