Mike Swick vs. Josh Burkman a “Done Deal” for UFN 12
According to MMAMania.com, Mike Swick is going to be making his welterweight debut against Josh Burkman at UFC’s Ultimate Fight Night 12 on January 23.
MMAMania is reporting:
No official bout agreements have been signed; however, the match up is more or less a “done deal” from what we hear.
Also, it looks like the venue for this card will be held at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood, Florida. Now that a venue has been locked, an official card will start to materialize very soon.
More details to come.

Well, the Seminole Hard Rock has hosted several UFNs, if you check out the history there. UFNs 8 and 10 were hosted here, in addition to the Ortiz/Shamrock 3 card.

Certainly not an easy test for Swick in his first fight at welterweight. Should be a good slugfest on the feet. This UFN is shaping up to be a very balanced and entertaining card for sure.
