<p>Dana White announced via conference all on Friday that Cain Velasquez will defend his UFC heavyweight championship against top contender, Junior dos Santos, on Nov. 12 to headline the show.</p>
<p>The fight was originally scheduled to take place on Nov. 19 as the headline of UFC 139 from San Jose, but will now take place at The Pond in Anaheim.</p>
<p>White also indicated that this is the only fight scheduled for the 1-hour FOX premiere and if the fight ends quickly, they will air undercard bouts that took place earlier in the night.</p>
<p>Velasquez hasn’t fought since winning the championship from Brock Lesnar last October. He is 9-0 in his career.</p>
<p>Dos Santos is 13-1 and coming off a dominant win over Shane Carwin at UFC 131 in June. He has clearly established himself as being the top contender for Velasquez.</p>
<p>While these two may not be the highest-profile of fighters to the outside MMA fan, this is an amazing fight to get on free television.</p>
<p>The UFC is hoping for fireworks for this bout to really draw in a big audience and take the UFC to a new level. Hopefully this fight does just that.</p>
<p>The new main event for UFC 139 has yet to be announced but White indicated that it was in the works.</p>
