The UFC’s stacked December pay-per-view in Las Vegas just got even deeper. Bantamweights Urijah Faber (31-7 MMA, 7-3 UFC) and Francisco Rivera (10-3 MMA, 3-2 UFC) are set to meet on the card at UFC 181. UFC officials announced the new booking on Wednesday night. Featuring a welterweight title fight rematch between champ Johny Hendricks and Robbie Lawler, as well as a lightweight title fight between champ Anthony Pettis and Gilbert Melendez, UFC 181 takes place at Las Vegas’ Mandalay Bay Events Center. The main card airs on pay-per-view following prelims on FOX Sports 1 and UFC Fight Pass. Faber in July submitted Alex Caceres in the third round at UFC 175, putting him back in the win column after his UFC 169 title fight loss to Renan Barao in February
