Setting The Stage For What Should Be An Epic Night In Manchester On Saturday
The last time the UFC was in Manchester, a British champion headlined before a raucous crowd, with Michael Bisping closing out the show at Manchester Arena by successfully defending his middleweight title against long-time rival Dan Henderson in the main event of UFC 304.
Just shy of eight years later, the UFC makes its return to home of Oasis and Premier League powerhouses Manchester City and Manchester United with a pay-per-view fight card at Co-op Live, where a pair of British champions will look to follow in Bisping’s footsteps by defending their titles on home soil.
