White announced that if Canadian Mark Hominick beats George Roop at the Jan. 22 show, he'll fight Jose Aldo for the featherweight title at UFC 129 in Toronto on April 30.
Ok...so it's not much of an article...but yeah. Potentially 2 title fights in Toronto now.

*EDIT*
Ok...this is more like it.

Mark Hominick will have a lot on the line at next weekend’s UFC Fight for the Troops show.


Not only will he be looking for a successful return to the UFC against George Roop, but with a win he secures his place in the co-main event of UFC 129 and a title shot against UFC featherweight champion Jose Aldo.


“If Mark Hominick wins this fight, he gets a shot at the title with (Jose) Aldo,” UFC President Dana White revealed on Tuesday. “That will be in Toronto (UFC 129).”


Hominick returns to the UFC on a four fight win streak, including his last victory over Leonard Garcia at WEC 51.


The Canadian born fighter faces George Roop in a featured bout on next weekend’s Spike TV card, with the end result proving a big payoff if he’s successful.


For Roop the fight will be about getting a win and playing spoiler, because according to White he’s not on the same path as Hominick with a victory.


“I don’t know back to the drawing board,” said White when asked what happens if Hominick loses.


The bout between Hominick and Roop will go down next Saturday night at Fort Hood in Texas as a featured fight on Spike TV as a part of the UFC Fight for the Troops show.

So with Hominick's win, Aldo will now make his UFC debut and defend his title at UFC 129 along with GSP. Starting to look like one of the best that the UFC has put out probably since UFC 100.
