The UFC will return to Pittsburgh for the first time in five years with a card headed to the Consol Energy Center on Sunday, Feb. 21.

UFC officials confirmed the fight first reported by the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.

The UFC last visited the Steel City in 2011 with an event that featured one of the most incredible comeback knockouts of all time as Cheick Kongo finished Pat Barry in a heavyweight showdown.

As of now there are no confirmed bouts for the upcoming card, but with February just around the corner, it probably won't take long for fights to get announced.

The show will air live on FS1.
