This Saturday the UFC makes it’s first visit to Scotland for UFC Fight Night 72 and we’ve got the full fight card for you below.
Headlining the show we have the middleweight divisions current No.9 ranked Michael Bisping going up against Thales Leites who’s just one position behind him at No.10 and is currently on a five fight unbeaten stretch since rejoining the UFC in 2013.
In the co-main event former TUF winner Ross Pearson looks to build on a KO win over Sam Stout when he faces Evan Dunham.
Meanwhile, Ireland’s Joseph Duffy, the only man to ever have beaten Conor McGregor back in 2010, makes his UFC debut against Ivan Jorge.
Scotland’s own Joanne Calderwood now fights late replacement Cortney Casey in front of her home fans after her original opponent Bec Rawlings was forced to pull out last week with a femoral stress fracture.
Rounding out the main card we have welterweight action with Leon Edwards squaring up to Pawel Pawlak while Brazil’s Leonardo Mafra fights Scotsman Stevie Ray.
