The UFC will make its Irish return on November 19th at the SSE Arena, it has been confirmed in the last few minutes.
This will be the UFC's first event in Belfast since UFC 72 in June 2007 which featured a headline bout between Rich Franklin and Yushi Okami, while Hall of Famer Forrest Griffin competed in the co-main event against Hector Ramirez.
Dublin has housed the past three Irish UFC cards in 2015, 2014 and 2009, so this is fantastic news for all MMA fans north of the border.
