Description
UFC on FX: Sotiropoulos vs. Pearson (also known as UFC on FX 6) was a mixed martial arts event held by the Ultimate Fighting Championship on December 15, 2012, at the Gold Coast Convention and Exhibition Centre in Gold Coast, Australia. Due to the time zone difference it aired live on December 14 in North America.

Background
The event featured the final bouts of The Ultimate Fighter: The Smashes. This was the first UFC event held in Queensland, and the first event in Australia to be held outside New South Wales.

Joe Martinez was the ring announcer in what would be his UFC octagon debut.

Australia's George Sotiropoulos and Britain's Ross Pearson headlined the card in a five-round main event. The pair had been coaching opposite one another on the hit reality TV series The Ultimate Fighter: The Smashes.

Kyle Noke was expected to face Seth Baczynski at the event. However, Noke was forced out of the bout with an injury and was replaced by Mike Pierce.

Anthony Perosh was expected to face Joey Beltran at the event. However, Perosh was forced from the bout with a toe injury and replaced by Igor Pokrajac.

A bout between Ednaldo Oliveira and Krzysztof Soszynski was originally scheduled for this event. However, Oliveira was forced out of the bout with an injury and Sosynski was pulled from the event as well.

Eddie Mendez was expected to make his promotional debut at the event against Nick Penner. However, Mendez pulled out of the bout citing a shoulder injury and was replaced by fellow newcomer Cody Donovan.

Hacran Dias was expected to face Chad Mendes at the event. However just days before the event, Dias pulled out of the bout citing a shoulder injury and was replaced by promotional newcomer Yaotzin Meza.
