Instead, Kuiper will fight a week later at UFC On Fox VI, his new opponent is fellow middleweight Buddy Roberts. Kuiper has split his first two appearances in the UFC, defeating Jared Hamman and suffering a defeat to Rafael Natal. Roberts will be looking to rebound from his first UFC defeat, which came at the hands of Yushin Okami at UFC 150. UFC On Fox VI takes place on January 26th from the United Center in Chicago, Illinois with Demetrious Johnson and John Dodson headlining.
