UFC 160: Fight Card

UFC 160 takes place this Saturday night, May 25th in Las Vegas and we’ve got the full fight card for you below.

Headlining this one is a heavyweight title bout between current champion Cain Velasquez and Antonio ‘Bigfoot’ Silva.

It is in fact a rematch since these two fought just in November of 2011 with Velasquez dominating en-route to a first round KO on that occasion, but ‘Bigfoot’ has bounced back with big knockout wins of his own against Travis Browne and Alistair Overeem since then to earn a second chance.

The co-main event sees more heavyweight action as Junior Dos Santos and Mark Hunt go toe-to-toe in what could well produce the ‘Knockout Of The Night’ and potentially decide who gets the next shot at the title.

One of the light-heavyweight division’s top contenders Glover Teixiera returns to action at UFC 160 against James Te Huna who steps in to replace Ryan Bader due to an injury.

Meanwhile Gray Maynard and TJ Grant go to battle in the lightweight division knowing that win will guarantee them a title shot next time out.

Finally there’s more lightweight action on tap as Donald Cerrone and KJ Noons throw down in a match-up that should provide plenty of entertainment.
