UFC London doesn’t look stacked, on paper, but what it lacks in name value it more than makes up for in fighting prospects.
Fighting out of the O2 Arena, London, England, undefeated featherweights Movsar Evloev and Lerone Murphy put their 0’s on the line for a shot at Volkanovski’s title. Keen-eyed fight fans will recognize some entertaining names like Michael ‘Venom’ Page, but there’s a wealth of British talent waiting to steal the limelight.

UFC Fight Night: Evloev vs. Murphy is set to kick off at 5 pm GMT / 12 pm EST, with the prelims finishing around 8 pm GMT / 3 pm EST. The main card should continue until around midnight GMT, or 7-8 pm EST.

Who should I pay attention to at UFC London?
UFC fans should be paying attention to every fight above Louie Sutherland vs. Brando Pericic.
Losene Keita is one of the most hyped UFC signings of the decade, he’s a ferocious finisher, and former OKTAGON MMA double champion. Axel Sola, in a similar vein, is a former KSW champion and a nasty striker. Paddy Pimblett’s protege, Kurtis Campbell, also debuts in the main card opener.
Mario Pinto is one of the better heavyweights we’ve seen in the UFC recently. Christian Leroy Duncan is a wizard with spinning attacks and is riding a three-fight finishing streak.
Iwo Baraniewski debuted in one of the best one-round UFC fights of all time (watch below).
Michael Page goes without explanation, but his opponent, Sam Patterson, hasn’t seen a decision inside the Octagon.
