The UFC makes its return to the state of Connecticut on Friday for the first time since October 2005 with UFC Fight Night 50. The rare Friday-night FOX Sports 1-televised showcase from Ledyard’s Foxwoods Resort Casino features a middleweight rematch in the main event as Ronaldo Souza (20-3 MMA, 3-0 UFC) and Gegard Mousasi (35-4-2 MMA, 2-1 UFC) face off in a key five-round middleweight affair. Mousasi emerged victorious by knockout in the first meeting, which took place in September 2008. He landed a flush upkick to the jaw of “Jacare” to win the DREAM middleweight grand prix. Outside of the headliner, UFC Fight Night 50 is one of best televised events the UFC has put together since launching on its current FOX platform
