UFC on Versus 6 will be LIVE! from the Verizon Center, Washington D.C airing on Versus on October 1st 2011.

Main Event:
Bantamweight Championship: Dominick Cruz (18-1) vs Demetrious Johnson (10-1)

Main Card:

170lbs: Charlie Brenneman (14-2) vs Anthony Johnson (9-3)
265lbs: Stefan Struve (21-5) vs Pat Barry (6-3)
155lbs: Mac Danzig (20-8) vs Matt Wiman (13-6)

Preliminary Card:

135lbs: Jeff Hougland (10-4) vs Mike Easton (10-1)
155lbs: Rafello Oliveira (14-4) vs Yves Edwards (40-17-1)
170lbs:{/b] Justin Edwards (6-1) vs Jorge Lopez (11-1)

Not as good as the last VS card, but still some good fights worth checking out. Cruz is good and I see him retaining here, he's at another level at 135. Struve/Barry is a good fight, actually like Stefan and he's moving up the HW ranks quick, a loss here and Barry might be on his way out.

A welterweight bout between returning Josh Neer (31-10-1 MMA, 4-6 UFC) and Keith Wisniewski (28-12-1 MMA, 0-1 UFC) is now official for next month's UFC on Versus 6 event.

MMAJunkie.com first reportedthe fight this past month, and executives recently made it official.

UFC on Versus 6 takes place at Washington, D.C.'s Verizon Center.

The evening's main card, including a bantamweight title fight between current champ Dominick Cruz and challenger Demetrious Johnson, airs on Versus. Neer vs. Wisniewski is slated for the preliminary card, which is expected to stream on Facebook.

With a new four-fight deal, the 28-year-old Neer returns to the UFC for the first time since 2009, when he went 2-3 with two "Fight of the Night" awards in a five-fight stint. Since then, "the Dentist" has posted a 6-1 record, including a current four-fight win streak and a recent TKO victory over Blas Avena in the headliner of Superior Cage Combat 2 in Las Vegas. Neer's only stumble during his recent streak came in a non-title fight with champ Eddie Alvarez at Bellator 17, which ended in a submission loss.

The 29-year-old Wisniewski competed just once in the UFC and suffered a decision loss to Nick Thompson at UFC 56. It began a career-worst five-fight losing streak in organizations such as BodogFIGHT and the IFL. However, he's since posted six consecutive victories, including recent wins over UFC vets Pete Spratt (submission) and Chris Wilson (unanimous decision via 30-26, 30-26 and 30-27 scores).

Barry/Struve is the other match I'm really looking forward to. Both guys are pretty much in the back of the pack at HW, Barry def needs a win here just hasn't been that impressive so far in the UFC.
