The season finale of The Ultimate Fighter (TUF) 12 looks to have its first match-up on paper as former Spike TV reality show contestant and fan favorite Stephan Bonnar will lock horns with Croatian crusher Igor Pokrajac on Dec. 4 in Las Vegas.
MMAmania.com was able to confirm an initial report by ESPN host Jon Anik earlier today.
Bonnar is coming off an exciting win in his rematch with Krzysztof Soszynski at UFC 110. That win was his first in four trips to the Octagon and was very much needed to get his career back on track.
Pokrajac is coming off his first win in a few trips to the cage himself when he beat James Irvin via rear naked choke at UFC on Versus 2. Prior to that he'd been defeated by Vladimir Matyushenko and James Te Huna.
The bout doesn't have deep divisional relevance but it is a very interesting bout that will give one of these two men a two fight win streak.
