UFC President Dana White in a live chat with fans on The Seattle Times website today confirmed that heavyweight contender Shane Carwin will face Jon Olav Einemo in what will be the Norwegian’s UFC debut.

Einemo will face Carwin at UFC 131, which is scheduled to take place June 11 at Rogers Arena in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, and features Brock Lesnar vs. Junior dos Santos in the main event.
