The UFC returns to Australia this Saturday, November 26 (or Sunday, November 27 local time) with a decent offering on Fox Sports 1.
While not stacked with name value, there should be solid action up and down the card from up-and-coming young fighters. In the main event, a new middleweight contender will emerge from the matchup of Derek Brunson and Robert Whittaker in a division that badly needs some new blood at the top. This should be a fun fight—and one with real consequences.
The co-main event is essentially an opportunity for Australian prospect Jake Matthews to get back on track against Andrew Holbrook, while Australian veteran Kyle Noke gets a chance to rebound against Omari Akhmedov.
Other fights to keep an eye on include the prospect matchup between Khalil Rountree and Tyson Pedro and the Fight Pass headliner between Jason Knight and Dan Hooker.
Let's take a look at each matchup.
