The Ultimate Fighting Championship continues to confirm bouts for its upcoming FOX card in January, and the latest addition for the event is a lightweight fight between TJ Grant and Matt Wiman.

The UFC on FOX 6 card will be hosted by Chicago’s United Center and will be broadcast on the FOX network.

Grant (19-5) has won three straight fights since he elected to drop down from welterweight, as the Canadian has scored wins over Shane Roller, Carlo Prater and most recently Evan Dunham.

Wiman (15-6) has won two straights bouts since he lost by unanimous decision to Dennis Siver in July, 2011, as the former TUF competitor has defeated Mac Danzig and most recently British prospect Paul Sass.

UFC on F0X 6 will feature a flyweight bout between champion Demetrious Johnson and Jon Dodson in the main event.

The promotion has also announced that Anthony Pettis will take on fellow lightweight contender Donald Cerrone.
