UFC Sydney is set to feature a bout that will bring back memories of the Canada vs. Australia season of The Ultimate Fighter.
TUF Nations cast members Elias Theodorou and Daniel Kelly are booked to meet in a middleweight bout at UFC Fight Night 121 on Nov. 19 at the Qudos Bank Arena in Sydney, Australia, the promotion announced Thursday.
Theodorou (13-2) and Kelly (13-2) were housemates on an international edition of TUF that was filmed in Quebec City, Quebec, the first and to date only season to take place in Canada. They never crossed paths on the show, with Kelly being eliminated in the opening round by Sheldon Westcott, and Theodorou going on to win the show’s middleweight tournament by defeating Westcott in the finals.
