The UFC's Primetime series will be returning next month for the UFC 154 bout between Georges St-Pierre and Carlos Condit. The UFC had a one-episode special for Anderson Silva vs. Chael Sonnen at UFC 148 earlier this year, but this marks a return to St-Pierre, who has been featured more than any other fighter on the special behind-the-scenes series.

The debut episode will air on Fuel TV on Tuesday, Nov. 6 at 10:30PM ET, with replays airing on other Fox networks throughout the week.

St-Pierre returns to the cage at UFC 154 for the first time in 19 months, after knee injuries kept him out of action and required extensive rehab through the first half of 2012. He'll take on the man who captured the Interim Welterweight Championship in his absence, Carlos Condit.

Condit captured the belt in a bout with Nick Diaz in February, earning a unanimous decision at UFC 143. The former WEC Welterweight Champion has won five straight fights in the UFC since a close split decision loss to Martin Kampmann in his UFC debut.

The bout will come in the main event of the UFC 154 pay-per-view card, which comes to Montreal, Quebec, Canada on Nov. 17.
