UFC on FX 4 is shaping up to be quite the card.<BR><BR>
In addition to a featured bout between dangerous lightweight?s Gray Maynard (10-1-1) and Clay Guida (29-12), a quartet of new fights have been made official for the event. Rick Story (13-5) will meet Rich Attonito (10-5); Dan Miller (13-6) will tangle with Ricardo Funch (8-3); Matt Riddle (6-3) meets Luis Ramos (19-7) and Brian Ebersole (49-14-1) will throw down with T.J. Waldburger (15-6). All four bouts will be contested at welterweight.<BR><BR>
Story has picked up six victories inside the octagon, while tasting defeat on three separate occasions. He?s been bested by Martin Kampmann and Charlie Brenneman in his last two fights. Attonito in contrast hasn?t experienced anywhere near the same level of success, as he?s picked up just three wins versus two defeats fighting for the promotion. He was stopped in his last trip to the octagon by Jake Hecht early in the second frame.<BR><BR>
Dan Miller, who will be making his welterweight debut hasn?t enjoyed much success under the Zuffa banner. His UFC record stands at 5-5. He?s dropped his last two consecutive fights; one to Rousimar Palhares, the other to Nate Marquardt. Funch however, hasn?t exactly ignited much debate himself, and if he has, it?s only for the sole fact that he?s somehow still fighting for the UFC after dropping three promotional fights. In his most recent outing at UFC 142 he was stopped by Mike Pyle.<BR><BR>
The Ultimate Fighter season seven, veteran Matt Riddle makes his way back to the cage just months after taking away a split decision nod over Henry Martinez at UFC 143. His promotional record matches his overall record, as he?s never competed outside of the UFC. Luis Ramos will be looking for his first octagon win; he was disposed of handily in his debut by fellow Brazilian, Erick Silva at UFC 134.<BR><BR>
Brian Ebersole will look to make it three straight inside the UFC welterweight ranks; he?s already toppled Chris Lytle, Dennis Hallman and Claude Patrick. T.J. Waldburger has enjoyed quite a bit of promotional success himself, piecing together a 3-1 octagon tally. His lone defeat came at the hands of the surging Johny Hendricks.<BR><BR>
UFC on FX 4 airs on June 22nd. The action emanates from the Revel Casino in Atlantic City, N.J.<BR><BR>
