With the Undercard looking extremely promising, let's take a better look at the main card of the night.
At UFC Fight Night 142 in Adelaide, on the 1st of December, the fate of the Heavyweight Division will be decided. With Francis Ngannou winning his bout against Curtis Blaydes last week, the newcomer, Tai Tuivasa, ranked at Number 11 and Junior Dos Santos, the veteran Heavyweight will square off.
A win here could propel either fighter to the top five, or at least establish them as a future contender for the title.
After having won numerous accolades, this will also be Mauricio Rua's chance to get back in the thick of things. He may find that more difficult than he'd have liked, however, with Tyson Pedro being far from a pushover.
