The UFC announced Thursday its intention to return to the Saitama Super Arena in Japan on Sept. 27, 2015 for a UFC Fight Night event.

The event will mark the fourth time the organization has staged an event in Japan and the second in Asia this year.

In addition to the Fight Night, the UFC announced it will produce a reality show called "Road to UFC: Japan" that will follow eight Japanese fighters competing for a UFC contract under the tutelage of Roy "Big Country" Nelson and Josh "The Warmaster" Barnett.
