The main card is set for next month’s UFC on FOX 10 event, which boasts four previously announced bouts. UFC on FOX 9 takes place Jan. 25 at Chicago’s United Center. The main card, which follows prelims on FOX Sports 1 and MMAjunkie, features a lightweight headliner between top contenders Benson Henderson (19-3 MMA, 7-1 UFC) and Josh Thomson (20-5 MMA, 3-1 UFC). Henderson, a former champ, could secure a shot to reclaim his belt if he gets by Thomson, who was scheduled to fight titleholder Anthony Pettis next week at UFC on FOX 9 before the champ dropped off the card with an injury.
