The UFC arrives to Florida and unfortunately we don’t get to see the rematch between Jacare Souza and Yoel Romero but Jack Hermansson has stepped up in Romero’s absence to take part in the war.

I break down the most stacked card of the year which features two of the very best defending their belts. Jon Jones welcomes Anthony Smith to the big time and Tyron Woodley takes on Kamaru Usman.

The UFC makes its first trip to the Czech Republic for UFC Fight Night 145. Lucie Pudilova is the home hero as she takes on Liz Carmouche. The event is headlined by Jan Blachowicz and Thiago Santos who looks to continue sledgehammering his way through the 205 division.
