The UFC will be running events at Las Vegas' Mandalay Bay Events Center on consecutive days this July.
As part of their "International Fight Week," the UFC will bring UFC 175 to the venue on Saturday, July 5, followed by The Ultimate Fighter 19 Finale on Sunday, July 6.
UFC President Dana White confirmed the plans ahead of UFC 171 on Thursday. In addition to the two events, the UFC is expected to host another Fan Expo that weekend as well.
The TUF 19 Finale is also expected to play host to the TUF 19 coaches bout between B.J. Penn and Frankie Edgar. That bout will be Penn's debut in the featherweight division, the third separate division he'll have competed in inside the Octagon.
