Mike Pierce to fight Aaron Simpson at UFC on FX 5

Two All American wrestlers, who have transferred their grappling skills successfully into the Octagon, lock horns on the UFC's fifth broadcast on FX.

Aaron Simpson and Mike Pierce are set to clash, in a battle between two extremely effective wrestlers. 

Simpson got off to a winning start at 170, earning a unanimous decision, over Kenny Robertson on last month's UFC on Fuel card, after dropping weight-class. While Pierce gained a decision victory over Carlos Eduardo Rocha, following a tough split decision loss against, Josh Koscheck.

The card is slated for the Target Center in Minneapolis, Minnesota and will be headlined by a heavyweight showdown, between Antonio 'Big Foot' Silva and Travis Browne. 

This fight was first announced on, mmafighting.com.
