UFC UK President, Marshall Zelaznik officially announced three of the fights set to take place at UFC 120 on October 16 in London, England, with the main event being a Middleweight battle between Michael Bisping and Yoshihiro Akiyama.

Speaking via a press release, Zelaznik said:

“We have three of the very best British fighters to ever put on a pair of gloves, all in hugely significant matches, all on the same card. At only 22, Hathaway has established himself as someone to really look out for in the welterweight division after dominating Diego Sanchez, but Mike Pyle couldn’t care less about the hype.”

“Dan Hardy was a national hero in the UK already, but I think he won an army of American fans by his display of courage against Georges St-Pierre, but now faces a fighter with the same ‘never-say-die’ attitude in Carlos Condit. And Bisping fights are always magical occasions in England, but in Akiyama, he may be in for his toughest test yet.”

This card is almost weaker then UFC 115. Oh well, at least it is free.

"We have three of the very best British fighters to ever put on a pair of gloves"

which means:

nothing.

It means a very underwhelming fight card. At least last years freeby had Randy Couture in the main event. It wasn't a good fight, but at least it added some star power.

A fight he should've lost

but won none the less

Even though he didn't deserve it. Like Jones/Hammill.

A win is a win, sorry dude. The point is, at least Randy is a real UFC Superstar. This card is void of real superstars. Superstars in the UK, sure, but not real superstars.

Sexy is a superstar in Japan

And he just lost. How does he go from tapping out, to being in a Main Event?

Cuz he's Sexy and you're not.

Hey, this has nothin to do with me.
