The UFC have released a preview video for UFC 111, which pits welterweight champion Georges St. Pierre against Dan Hardy.

One of the better cards of the year on paper, the event also features Frank Mir vs. Shane Carwin for the interim heavyweight title, and potentially the first shot at a returning Brock Lesnar.

The fight poster for the card has also been a source of some controversy due to the fact that a tattoo on Dan Hardy’s midsection has been removed on some of the posters.

The tattoo is a Tibetan mantra, which it is rumored was removed for use in China where the tattoo might have caused offense.

No official word from the UFC on that one, but either way the card should prove interesting.

Jon Fitch also rematches Thaigo Alves which will have implications for the future of the welterweight division down the line.

The full fight card is as follows:

  • Canada Georges St. Pierre (c) vs. England Dan Hardy
  • United States Frank Mir vs. United States Shane Carwin
  • United States Ben Saunders vs. United States Jake Ellenberger
  • United States Jon Fitch vs. Brazil Thiago Alves
  • United States Jim Miller vs. Canada Mark Bocek
  • United States Nate Diaz vs. United States Rory Markham
  • United States Ricardo Almeida vs. United States Matt Brown
  • United States Kurt Pellegrino vs. Brazil Fabricio Camoes
  • United States Rodney Wallace vs. United States Jared Hamman
  • Brazil Rousimar Palhares vs. Poland Tomasz Drwal
