TJ Grant vs. Anthony Pettis could happen at UFC on FOX 9

A lightweight title tilt could happen at UFC on FOX 9 as the main-event on December 14, 2013 in Sacramento, California.

Newly crowned UFC lightweight champ Anthony Pettis told UFC President Dana White that he is eager to defend his strap as early as December against the deserving Canadian TJ Grant.

Grant however, is eyeing a Jan. 2014 return.

If Grant is ready, we could see the highly anticipated 155-pound showdown between the pair.
