Saturday June 12, 2010 will be the latest Mixed Martial Arts Pay-Per-View event presented by Dana White’s UFC. This time around it will feature a main event which offers back-from-retirement Chuck Lidell against Rich Franklin. It was originally scheduled to be Lidell vs Ortiz, but Ortiz had to pull out due to neck surgery. “The Iceman” will look to return to form against Franklin who had three big name opponents in 2009 to give him even more experience in the Octagon. Here’s how the rest of the fight card will go on Saturday night, for the fourth UFC PPV in Canada. Check below for how to watch the event.

The UFC 115 Pay-Per-View will take place at General Motors Palace in Vancouver, British Columbia with a 10PM start time for the PPV. According to odds makers, right now Rich Franklin is favored to win due to his impressive previous bouts against Dan Henderson, Wanderlei Silva and Vitor Belfort in 2009. He lost two of the three matches, but those three opponents provide crucial experience. Meanwhile, Lidell lost by a knockout from Mauricio Rua in 2009, and is returning from a 14-month retirement to fight.
