The UFC’s February return to the Front Range of Colorado now has some fights.
The UFC announced three bouts for the Valentine’s Day card in Broomfield, including a featherweight showdown between American Top Team fighter Cole Miller (21-8) and the 22-year old Hawaiian, Max Holloway (11-3).
Other bouts announced for the Feb. 14 card is a top ten flyweight fight between Zach Makovsky and Tim Elliott, as well as another 125-pound contest between Ray Borg (7-1) and 33-year old Canadian Chris Kelades (8-1). The “Taxmexican Devil” Borg is coming off a June victory over Shane Howell.
Since losing to Conor McGregor in August 2013, Holloway has gone a perfect 4-0 in 2014, his latest victory coming over Akira Corassani in Stockholm, Sweden last month.
Miller, who was slated to face McGregor in Dublin this past July but had to withdraw with a hand injury, has won a pair of fights in a row. His victory over Sam Sicilia in January was good enough for Submission of the Night honors (rear naked choke).
UFC Fight Night will take place at the 1stBank Center in Broomfield, Colorado, about 20 minutes north of Denver. The last time the UFC visited Broomfield was for Jon Jones vs. Brandon Vera for UFC on Versus 1 in 2010.
