\"\"<\/a>Audiences nationwide will get an up-close view of Georges St-Pierre\u2019s return to the Octagon\u00ae as NCM\u00ae Fathom Events and the Ultimate Fighting Championship\u00ae (UFC\u00ae) present \u201cUFC\u00ae 154: St-Pierre vs. Condit.\u201d Broadcast live from Montreal\u2019s Bell Centre on Saturday, November 17 at 10:00 p.m. ET \/ 9:00 p.m. CT \/ 8:00 p.m. MT \/ 7:00 p.m. PT (6:00 p.m. in Alaska \/ 5:00 p.m. in Hawaii), fans will witness the crowning of the new undisputed UFC welterweight champion, as St-Pierre looks to extend his five-year, nine-fight winning streak against interim titleholder, and \u201cNatural Born Killer\u201d Carlos Condit. After an injury sidelined St-Pierre for nearly a year, Condit claimed the interim title by defeating Nick Diaz in February. Now the two will battle it out on St-Pierre\u2019s home turf to determine the world\u2019s best 170-pound fighter.<\/p>\n

Tickets for \u201cUFC\u00ae 154: St-Pierre vs. Condit\u201d are available at participating theater box offices and online atwww.FathomEvents.com<\/a>. The event will be presented in more than 350 select movie theaters around the country through NCM\u2019s exclusive Digital Broadcast Network. For a complete list of theater locations and prices, visit the NCM Fathom Events website (theaters and participants are subject to change).<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is one of the biggest fights of the year. Georges St-Pierre is back in probably the fight of his career. GSP hasn\u2019t fought in several months. Meanwhile Carlos Condit has been beating a who\u2019s who at 170 lbs for years. This is a serious fight,\u201d said UFC President Dana White. \u201cOn November 17, fans can watch champion vs. champion, in select theaters across the country, to see who will leave as the undisputed best fighter in the UFC welterweight division.\u201d<\/p>\n

St- Pierre last defeated Jake Shields at UFC 129 but an ACL injury sidelined the welterweight champion late last year. Condit earned a decision win over Nick Diaz at UFC 143 in February, which NCM Fathom Events presented in more than 35 select theaters in 3-D via RealD LIVE technology.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis November UFC fans won\u2019t want to miss Georges St-Pierre\u2019s return to the Octagon\u00ae after his 17-month absence when he takes on interim titleholder Carlos Condit,\u201d said Dan Diamond, senior vice president of NCM Fathom Events. \u201cWatching this championship bout on the big screen will bring an unrivaled fan experience from the Octagon\u00ae to hundreds of local movie theaters nationwide.\u201d<\/p>\n

Also on the UFC\u00ae 154 main card, Johny Hendricks (13-1, fighting out of Dallas, Texas) meets Denmark native Martin Kampmann (20-5, fighting out of Las Vegas, Nev.) in a compelling welterweight co-main event with title implications. As the only fighter to defeat interim champion Carlos Condit in the UFC, Kampmann feels a win over Hendricks will put him at the top of the 170-pound division. Fresh off a pair of wins over former welterweight title challengers Jon Fitch and Josh Koscheck, the hard-hitting Hendricks is confident of his standing in the welterweight class and looks to add a fifth consecutive win to his impressive streak on Nov. 17.<\/p>\n
