Rumours have been swirling for weeks, with many fans holding out hope that the UFC would pull another last minute banger out of the bag – as they did with the last UFC London card (Bisping vs. Silva).
But according to MMA Junkie Jimi Manuwa (16-2) vs. Corey Anderson (9-2) is set to be confirmed as the main event for UFC Fight Night 107 on March 18. Although the match up was announced earlier this month, the bout is yet to be confirmed officially as the main event by the UFC.
Five out of seven of Manuwa‘s UFC appearances to date have been on UK soil, but this would be Anderson‘s first time fighting for the UFC in Europe.
Already confirmed for the event is:
Brad Pickett vs. Henry Briones
Leon Edwards vs. Vicente Luque
Marc Diakiese vs. Teemu Packalen
Tom Breese vs. Oluwale Bamgbose
Scott Askham vs. Bradley Scott
Darren Stewart vs. Francimar Barroso
Reza Madadi vs. Joseph Duffy
Daniel Omielanczuk vs. Timothy Johnson
