The UFC Featherweight Title will be defended in the main event of UFC 179 as champion Jose Aldo defends again against Chad Mendes. Aldo won the initial meeting between the two by knockout at UFC 142 and he has defended the belt three times since. Mendes has won five straight bouts since that loss to Aldo, which includes a win over Clay Guida at UFC 164. UFC 179 takes place on October 25th from the Ginasio Do Maracanazinho in Rio De Janeiro, Brazil with the aforementioned fighters headlining.
