The UFC returns to Ireland, albeit with a card devastated by injuries. The card lost both its main and co-main events, leaving it with a series of relevant if lesser contests between both rising contenders and regional names.
Where: 3Arena, Dublin, Ireland
When: Saturday, the six-fight Fight Pass preliminary card starts at 1:15 p.m. ET and the four-fight Fight Pass main card kicks off 4 p.m.
Holohan's commitment to stable attacking positions should be the difference here. Smolka is no joke and has every kind of counter available, but he doesn't have the same kind of attacking purpose the Irish fighter typically does.
