The UFC’s next blockbuster event is more than a week away but this weekend is filled to the gills with meaningful fight cards.

“The two title fights are getting quite a lot of national interest from the MMA scene," notes promoter Chris Zorba of the 145lbs and 170lbs championship tilts.

The Irish Kaobon fighter lost at the hands of highly-ranked Daniel Thomas, but is looking to get back on the winning trail against Mike Wilkinson this weekend.

"It’s the most electric match-up I can think of at the moment in British MMA," Zorba notes of the middleweight clash between Paul Cahoon and John Phillips.

“I thought it was a fantastic war. I really enjoyed fighting Peter; he’s a very talented guy," noted the Manvers Fight Factory welterweight.
