Norman Parke to clash with Reza Madadi at UFC Fight Night 77 in Dublin

The UFC's fall return to Dublin won't include Irishman Conor McGregor. But it will feature Northern Ireland's Norman Parke.

On Friday, the UFC announced a lightweight bout between Parke and Sweden's Reza Madadi will take place at UFC Fight Night 77 at the 3Arena on Oct. 25.

The 28-year old Parke (20-4-1) will attempt snap a two fight losing streak, which began in January with a split decision loss against Gleison Tibau in Boston. He since dropped a second split-decision against Francisco Trinaldo at UFC Fight Night 67 in Goiania, Brazil.
