Main article: UFC on FX: Alves vs. Kampmann

This was the second UFC event to air on FX and 200th UFC event ever[citation needed] which occurred on March 3, 2012 at the Allphones Arena in Sydney, Australia.[9] It was the most attended "Fight Night" in UFC history with over 14,000 people in the arena.[10] About 1.4 million viewers watched the event on FX, slightly more than the 1.3 million people who watched the UFC on FX 1.[11]

The event was the third UFC promotion held in Australia and the second to be televised on FX. It was also the 200th UFC event. The event hosted the first ever fights in the Flyweight division in UFC history as part of the semifinals of the Flyweight tournament, which will eventually crown the first ever UFC Flyweight Champion.[12] [13]

Jared Hamman was expected to face Kyle Noke at this event, but withdrew from the bout due to an injury. Noke instead faced promotional newcomer Andrew Craig.[14]

Robbie Peralta was expected to rematch Mackens Semerzier at this event, but pulled out of the bout due to an injury. Semerzier instead faced Daniel Pineda.[15]

At the post-fight press conference Dana White announced that the Flyweight Tournament fight between Demetrious Johnson and Ian McCall had a judging error which resulted in a 10–8 round being read as a 10–9. This resulted in the match ending in a majority decision win for Johnson instead of a majority draw. The error was corrected but the previously announced fourth round tie breaker could not be fought delaying the finish of the first round of the Flyweight Tournament.[16] Johnson and McCall are expected to rematch on June 8, 2012 at UFC on FX 3.[17]

Thiago Alves faced Martin Kampmann in the main event. Both fighters have enjoyed a long career in the UFC for more than five years, though recently both have mixed records of wins and losses. In this fight, Kampmann defeated Alves by submission with a guillotine choke at 4:12 of the third round.

The event also hosted the first round of a tournament to crown the first UFC Flyweight Champion. The rules for the tournament specified the standard set of three five minute rounds between the competitors. However, should the fight be a draw after those three rounds, a fourth sudden death round will be held, or "sudden victory round" as referred to by the UFC.[18] The first tournament fight was between Demetrious Johnson and Ian McCall which following three rounds was announced in-cage to be a majority decision for Johnson. Following the event, it was discovered that there was an error in adding the judges' scorecards and the match was really a majority draw. Since the error was discovered too late to hold the fourth, sudden victory, round a rematch between the competitors will be held at a later date.[19] The second tournament fight contained much less controversy as Joseph Benavidez earned a technical knock out victory over Yasuhiro Urushitani eleven seconds into the second round.

The fight of the night honors went to Demetrious Johnson and Ian McCall for their three round fight. Joseph Benavidez was awarded with knockout of the night following his victory over Urushitani. The submission of the night went to Martin Kampmann for his defeat of Thiago Alves.[20]

UFC on FX: Johnson vs. McCall is expected to take place on June 8, 2012 at the BankAtlantic Center in Sunrise, Florida.[22]

Controversy occurred at UFC on FX: Alves vs. Kampmann consisting of a scoring error that night resulted in a majority draw between Demetrious Johnson and Ian McCall being announced as a victory for Johnson.[23] Dana White announced the error following the conclusion of the event and that Johnson and McCall will have a rematch. The rematch was initially reported to happen at The Ultimate Fighter 15 Finale, but was later moved to this event to give this event (UFC on FX 3) a main event fight.[24] Since then, it has been announced by the UFC that the fight will be the main event of UFC on FX 3.[25]

The event will be the first that the UFC has hosted in South Florida since UFC Fight Night 10 in 2007.

This event will also be the first UFC event to be headlined by a Flyweight bout.
