The countdown has begun!
"Countdown" to UFC 177 lit up the airwaves on Sunday afternoon via FOX Sports 1 to help promote the upcoming pay-per-view (PPV) event scheduled for this Sat. night (Aug. 30, 2014) inside the Sleep Train Arena in Sacramento, California.
And this one should answer a lot of questions.
That's because T.J. Dillashaw and Renan Barao will slug it out in the five-round championship main event for "The Viper's" bantamweight belt. Check out an in-depth preview of their 135-pound rematch -- after Dillashaw shocked the world at UFC 173 -- in the video player above.
But there's more to the story. Much more.
In lightweight action, World Extreme Cagefighting (WEC) import Danny Castillo tries to inch himself closer to a 155-pound title shot at the expense of The Ultimate Fighter (TUF) 13 champion Anthony Ferguson. Check out their "Countdown" video below.
