Another major fight has been added to UFC 167 as Alistair Overeem will fight Las Vegan Frank Mir at the MGM Grand on Nov. 16.

Both fighters will enter the bout on losing streaks as Overeem has been knocked out twice in a row and Mir has suffered three straight defeats.

The heavyweight contest joins a welterweight title bout between Johny Hendricks and Georges St. Pierre and a recently announced light heavyweight matchup between Chael Sonnen and Rashad Evans on a stacked card as part of the 20th anniversary celebration of UFC 1.

Wow.. Pretty much an unwinable fight for Frank. He has no path to victory in this one. I wouldn't be surprised if he retired after this loss Phone Post 3.0

Looks like they're trading in Mir for Overeem.

Loser for sure gets cut and OF COURSE Overeem's greatest strength is Mir's greatest weakness. Phone Post 3.0
