UFC on Versus 6 takes place live tonight at the Verizon Center in Washington, DC. This will mark the first time in a long time that a title has been up for grabs on live tv. That title fight is the main event and it puts bantamweight champ Dominick Cruz up against 5'3" Demetrious Johnson.

June 26th of this year will be a day that Charlie Brenneman will never forget. He was supposed to fight TJ Grant on the UFC on Versus 4 card in Pittsburgh and Grant had to bow out due to injury. Brenneman was without an opponent, but stayed on weight just in case a fighter pulled out. Then, the Nate Marquardt situation happened and Brenneman was back in the ballgame. The day before the card, the UFC offered Brenneman the fight with Rick Story and Brenneman jumped on it.
He went out and put on a great performance as he defeated Rick Story via unanimous decision and his life changed after that. With more people recognizing him, Brenneman(14-2 MMA, 3-1 UFC) kicked his training into high gear as he faces Anthony Johnson(9-3 MMA, 6-3 UFC) tomorrow night at UFC Live On Versus 6.
We are just one week away from UFC 136. The card features two title bouts, the first of which a trilogy fight between UFC Lightweight Champion Frankie Edgar and Gray Maynard. The co-main event will put UFC Featherweight Champion Jose Aldo against the number one contender Kenny Florian.
