The UFC will hold its fourth “UFC Fan Expo” Oct. 15-16 at the Earls Court Exhibition Centre in London, the promotion announced on Friday.
The two-day expo, featuring MMA vendors and fighters, will culminate with UFC 120 on Oct. 16 at the O2 Arena in London, headlined by a middleweight bout between popular local draw Michael Bisping against Yoshihiro Akiyama.
The UFC, in partnership with Reed Exhibitions, has held two expos to date in Las Vegas. The UFC’s inaugural expo was held at the Mandalay Bay Convention Center in July 2009. The second installment came nearly a year later in May 2010.
The UFC is also hosting a two-day expo on Aug. 27-28 at the Hynes Convention Center in Boston. UFC 118, scheduled for Aug. 28 at the TD Garden, is the promotion’s first effort in the state since it passed regulations for MMA last December.
