Check out the current status of the UFC 204: Bisping vs. Henderson 2 fight card, set for October 8th in Manchester, England.

I didn't think I'd be typing this in 2016, but Michael Bisping and Dan Henderson are fighting for Bisping's UFC middleweight title. This is real life. What a time to be alive. Seven years ago, Henderson delivered the H-Bomb at UFC 100 and Bisping became the subject of MMA memes for all eternity. In just two months, Bisping will get the chance to avenge his loss against Hendo, who plans to retire regardless of the outcome in Manchester, England.

Bisping vs. Hendo isn't the only major middleweight bout on the card. Gegard Mousasi is finally getting that coveted fight with Vitor Belfort, albeit with Belfort looking absolutely awful in his last fight against…

Likewise.
Nice to have a decent card away from the US for once. Shame about the timing
Not that I dont believe you but do you have a link to an article or anything about the timing? Like an official statement. I am curious about the wording they used to spin it as a good thing for locals.

the guys in the co-main are 4-0 with 4 KOs in the past 4 years against the guys fighting for the title in the main event... you don't see that too often!

America wants to see another highlight reel Henderson KO before he rides off into the sunset wearing 12 lbs of UFC gold.
Yea agreed. So put it in the US. Surely Bisp cant have that much leverage? You can hardly say you are selling to the UK audience if you put it on at 3-5am Saturday night when most of the population are getting in from a massive bender or asleep sleeping off an all day session.

Will await official details before I get irritated, but I would have gone and bought into the event if it was normal times. 3am main card. No thanks.
