UFC 193 set for Etihad Stadium in Melbourne, Australia, on Nov. 15, Mark Hunt vs Bigfoot Silva rematch planned

It was a long road littered with beaurcpatic red-tape, but Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) will finally crack into the mixed martial arts (MMA) market in Melbourne, Australia, on Nov. 15, 2015.

And the world's leading promotion, thankfully, plans to bring several of its biggest guns to help try and pack the 60,000-seat Etihad Stadium, which will host the UFC 193 pay-per-view (PPV) show, according to The Sydney Morning Herald.

In the main event, Robbie Lawler will attempt to defend his Welterweight belt when he collides with former interim 170-pound title holder, Carlos Condit (more details here).
