Report | UFC Headed To The UK In September


By Jamie McAllister:
“Our expectation is that in September, we will be in the U.K. It won’t be Liverpool,” said Zelaznik, shooting down the rumors about Liverpool before announcing the U.K. return. “We haven’t announced the venue or the location or the date, but we will be back. The fans can rest assured, we will be coming back. Everyone is excited to be back and we’re hoping to bring a big card.”

The comments from UFC international development manager Marshall Zelaznik in a recent interview with Whoa! TV.Previously the show had been rumoured to be taking place in Liverpool but Zelanik’s comments state this is not the case and nothing is in place as of yet. The last event UFC 138 was held at the LG Arena in Birmingham and featured the likes of Chris Leben , Mark Munoz , Thiago Alves , Renan Barao as well as talent from the UK in Brad Pickett & Terry Etim

With the show being held in September who would you like to see on the card as well as in the main event of the show?

  1. PW says:

    Would love to see a title bout !

  2. The natural says:

    Maybe the new juice head champ bendo as in Ben Henderson can headline it Horrible he has to cheat to beat smaller guys then him

    • GET RID OF FITCH (forever) says:

      Cry me a river Frankie got beat up in everyone of his fights. the only reason Frankie doesn’t drop to 145 is because he knows he can’t beat Aldo. If or when Aldo moves up Frankie will announce the next day he will move down to 145. Bendo beat the sh’t out of Frankie get over it. Yeah Bendo is areal juice head. you sir are a moron. All champs drop 20 plus pounds. Bendo prob drops less weight than GSP, Jones, Silva

  3. Stevie D says:

    Just a better line up than UFC 138!!

    • Matthew P says:

      People still complaining about the line-up. I don’t know if you were there, but the event turned out to be great. All but 1 of the fights was exciting, so stop complaining.

  4. MIke S says:

    Title bout would be awesome like Bisping vs Anderson or Sonnen ! doubt it prob some meaningless main event with Dan hardy on it

    • Matthew P says:

      Bisping vs Anderson at Wembley Arena… If only.

      • jai says:

        Haha, I hear you man.

        Bisping vs Hardy would be cool.

        • GET RID OF FITCH (forever) says:

          Why would Bisping ever get a title fight. Hello he’s coming off a loss back of the line or maybe if he ever has balls to fight Vitor. Munoz, weidman, Stann would all beat Bisping so all that B.S. title talk is a waste of time

        • Ko_King says:

          The guy has never dodged a fight ball bag and has fought eveyone he has been asked in like some people!

  5. Shane Staley says:

    If he wins tomorrow i want to see James McSweeney on the card, he had FOTN last time he was in ufc in uk, also if he beats lashley give James Thompson 1 fight, win or lose he will sell tickets and put on a great show

  6. Bighead says:

    138 was a shocking main even…. UFC you have some making up to do! I would like to see Michael Page on that card, the man is a beast!!

  7. 8boll says:

    Would love to see Shogun, Machida or Hendo go at it, and if we can get a title fight then JDS vs anybody or Aldo put a beatin’ on someone. Make it happen Dana!

  8. @DannyUFC_ says:

    I think UFC 138 was actually quite good!!! Terry Etim deffinately needs to be there, and I’d say Jeff Hougland too :) I understand Terry Etim has a match soon anyway and he lost his last match against Edison Barboza but he deserves it

  9. UFC VIDEOS says:

    awesome, UK cards are alway good

  10. Ko_King says:

    GSP GSP GSP
    An der son
    An der son
    An der son
