'UFC 158: St-Pierre vs. Diaz' video preview, fight card and start times

The UFC’s next major event is just 11 days away, and the promotional push is underway for “UFC 158: St-Pierre vs. Diaz.”

The event takes place March 16 at Montreal’s Bell Centre, and welterweight champion Georges St-Pierre (23-2 MMA, 17-2 UFC) meets rival Nick Diaz (26-8 MMA, 7-5 UFC) in the pay-per-view headliner.

The card features a trio of bouts with top welterweights, though the focus is on the five-round title fight.

St-Pierre and Diaz originally were scheduled to fight in October 2011 at UFC 137, but Diaz no-showed a pair of promotional appearances and was pulled from the bout. In an odd twist, he was later placed back on the card and defeated B.J. Penn after St-Pierre was forced to withdraw from the event with a training injury. Diaz took the opportunity to call out St-Pierre.

“There’s a lot of animosity,” St-Pierre said. “I’m the one who’s got the belt. I’m the one who has the title. That’s why they tried to pick a fight with me.”

In addition to the PPV main card, the 13-bout lineup also includes prelims on FX and Facebook.
