UFC Fight Night 110 fighters dish on Auckland experience, including visit to 'Lord of the Rings' set

(The UFC hosts four events on four continents in four weeks. MMAjunkie is in Stockholm, Rio de Janeiro, Auckland and Singapore from May 23 to June 18 for the 2017 MMA Road Show.)

AUCKLAND, New Zealand – This city of 1.4 million that sits on the coast of the North Island of New Zealand is beautiful and has a lot to offer.

Even though the fighters of UFC Fight Night 110 are busy with preparations for Saturday’s (Sunday locally) event at Spark Arena, some have managed to soak in the city and its surrounding area, while others certainly plan to after fight night ends.

That includes headliner and noted “Lord of the Rings” fan Derrick Lewis, who shared with MMAjunkie his experience of touring the movie set nearby.

Check out the video above for fighter’s impressions of the host city, which the UFC is visiting for just the second time.
