UFC announces fight night card

UFC has announced the full lineup for Ultimate Fight Night (UFN) 6, which will take place at the Red Rock Casino, Resort & Spa in Las Vegas, Nevada, on August 17 at 8 p.m.

The action-packed event will lead-in to the premiere of The Ultimate Fighter (TUF) 4 at 10 p.m. on SpikeTV.

As previously reported, the show will be headlined by Diego Sanchez vs. Karo Parisyan in a welterweight fight. The balance of the televised card will see the following:

--Chris vs. Jorge Santiago
--Dean Lister vs. Yuki Sasaki
--Josh Koscheck vs. Jonathan Goulet

Interesting to note that Dean Lister is dropping down a division against Sasaki, who is making his UFC debut. Of course, Chris Leben's last UFC bout was his televised loss to Anderson Silva, where he was just totally destroyed.

We'll have more on these fights later this week.

The rest of the show, which will not be televised (unless the TV fights go really short) will see:

--Joe Riggs vs. Jason Von Flue
--Jake O'Brien vs. Christopher Midoux
--Sammy Morgan vs. Forrest Peltz
--Pat Healy vs. Anthony Torres
--Kalib Starnes vs. Crafton Wallace
