UFC On ESPN 12 Fight Card

UFC On ESPN 12 takes place on Saturday night at the APEX facility in Las Vegas and we’ve got the full fight card for you below.

The card will be headlined by a lightweight fight between two leading contenders in the division, the No.3 ranked Dustin Poirier and No.5 placed Dan Hooker.

Mike Perry will attempt to get back to winning ways in the co-main event after back-to-back losses when he faces Mickey Gall, who has been alternating between wins and losses during most of his UFC run so far.

A Contender Series recruit, Brendan Allen has notched up two wins in his UFC run so far and now faces short-notice newcomer Kyle Daukaus, who also previously picked up a win in the Contenders show, but has since been continuing to ply his trade in the Cage Fury promotion.

Gian Villante suffered a TKO loss last time out and now is getting ready to make his heavyweight debut against Maurice Greene, who is coming off two defeats in a row.

A fight between Aspen Ladd and Sara McMann was supposed to open up Saturday night’s main card, but Ladd has just pulled out due to a knee injury, so it remains to be seen if an opponent can be found to keep McMann on the line-up.
