UFC Fight Night 13 is an upcoming mixed martial arts (MMA) event to be held by the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) that is due to take place on April 2, 2008[1] at the Broomfield Event Center in Broomfield, Colorado.[1] The event will lead-in to the premiere of The Ultimate Fighter 7 on Spike. Fight Night 13 will be the first UFC event to be held in Colorado since The Ultimate Ultimate was held in Denver on December 16, 1995.[2] Unlike other UFC Fight Night cards, Fight Night 13 will be a three-hour event instead of two, due to a letter writing campaign by MMA fans to Spike.[3]

Stephan Bonnar was originally slated to take on Matt Hamill, but was forced to withdraw due to an injury.[4] He will be replaced by Tim Boetsch. Likewise, a planned bout between lightweights Spencer Fisher and Marcus Aurelio was canceled due to a shoulder injury Fisher suffered during training.[5] On March 20, 2008, the UFC website announced that newcomer Ryan Roberts will make his octagon debut on short notice to face Marcus Aurelio as a replacement for the injured Spencer Fisher.
