Pic: UFC 156 full poster for ‘Aldo vs. Edgar’ on Feb. 2 in Las Vegas

Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) has released its full poster for UFC 156 featuring Jose Aldo vs. Frankie Edgar, Alistair Overeem vs. Antonio Silva and Rashad Evans vs. Antonio Rogerio Nogueira. It all goes down on Feb. 2, 2013 from the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas, Nevada.

The countdown has begun...

The Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) hits Las Vegas for the first time in 2013 with a stacked event on "Super Saturday," one night before the NFL's Super Bowl.

A featherweight super fight headlines the card as UFC 145-pound champ Jose Aldo looks to defend his crown against former UFC lightweight champion Frankie Edgar, who moves down to featherweight for the first time in his career and looks to become the third-ever UFC fighter to capture belts in two different weight classes.

Along with the Aldo vs. Edgar headliner, a heavyweight contest between Alistair Overeem and Antonio Silva serves as the co-main event, while a light heavyweight match up of Rashad Evans vs. Antonio Rogerio Nogueira will also be featured on the main card.

That's one outstanding card if all fighters can survive the next five weeks.

Check below for a high quality version of the latest UFC 156: "Aldo vs. Edgar" event poster.
