The UFC returned to a 10 p.m. ET start with this event. UFC 141 was the last event to feature preliminary fights live on Spike TV. After much speculation, on September 6, 2011, it was announced that Overeem had signed a contract with the UFC and that his first fight would be against former UFC Heavyweight Champion Brock Lesnar on 30 December 2011 at UFC 141. The winner of the main event was expected to face Junior dos Santos in a bout for the UFC Heavyweight Championship. During the fight, Overeem hurt Lesnar multiple times early on with knees to the body and went on to finish the fight with a kick to the liver and subsequent punches at 2:26 of the first round. The victory earned him a heavyweight title shot against champion Junior dos Santos. After being defeated by Overeem, Lesnar announced his immediate retirement from the UFC. Overeem was scheduled to fight UFC Heavyweight Champion Junior dos Santos on 26 May 2012 at UFC 146. However, on 4 April 2012, Overeem was revealed to have failed his pre-fight drug test by the Nevada State Athletic Commission (NSAC). Overeem had a 14-to-1 testosterone-to-epitestosterone (T/E) ratio, over the allowed ratio rate of 6-to-1. On Friday 20 April 2012 UFC President Dana White confirmed that Overeem had been removed from his fight with dos Santos and replaced by Frank Mir.
