Sunday's UFC on Versus 5 broadcast features only four fights on television from the Bradley Center in Milwaukee, Wis., but fans who want to catch all of the fights will be able to catch all of the preliminary card fights live on Facebook.com.

This will mark the eighth straight event in which the UFC has made every fight on a card available for fans to view in some fashion, a streak that began back in April with UFC 129 in Toronto.

Sunday's card is headlined by a welterweight fight between Dan Hardy and Chris Lytle, with the main card also featuring an anticipated lightweight fight between Jim Miller and Ben Henderson. The card is the first UFC event ever in the state of Wisconsin, and the full 12 fight card features a number of highly entertaining fights on paper.

Like all previous streams, fans only need to "like" the UFC's Facebook page at Facebook.com/UFC, and then visit the page on Sunday beginning at 4:45PM ET as the stream begins. The full card is below:
