Two 'Fight of the Year' candidates? Check out UFC on FOX 29's official poster

UFC on FOX 29 could be one of the most explosive fight cards of the year, and the promotional hype has officially begun.

The April 14 event, which takes place at Gila Rivera Arena in Glendale, Ariz., near Phoenix, airs on FOX following prelims on FS1 and UFC Fight Pass. And it features not one – but two – fights at the top of the bill that could be “Fight of the Year” contenders.

In the main event, former WSOF champion Justin Gaethje (18-1 MMA, 1-1 UFC) faces veteran lightweight Dustin Poirier (22-5 MMA, 14-4 UFC) in a matchup of brawlers that promises to be action-packed.

The co-headliner sees a pair of veteran welterweights clash with former interim UFC champ Carlos Condit (30-11 MMA, 7-7 UFC) meeting Matt Brown (23-16, 14-10 UFC) in a bout several years in the making.

Here’s the official poster, featuring both fights (via Twitter):
