The UFC makes its return to Montreal this weekend as UFC 154 comes to the Bell Centre Saturday night.
With a star-studded main card headlined by UFC champ Georges St-Pierre, the preliminary card is also pretty stacked, featuring a ton of talented Octagon vets.
Canadian lightweights Sam Stout and John Makdessi will kick things off on the FX-televised portion of the program in what’s sure to be an exciting lightweight scrap. Following them will be a battle of fellow 155ers as Mark Bocek takes on Rafael dos Anjos.
Chad Griggs is set to make his light-heavyweight debut in a preliminary card bout against veteran Cyrille Diabate while Patrick Cote looks to bounce back from a UFC 148 loss to Cung Le as he faces middleweight Alessio Sakara.
Predicting this weekend’s fights are Bleacher Report MMA Featured Columnists Dwight Wakabayashi, John Heinis and myself, Matt Juul.
Take a look at who we think will leave Montreal victorious off the preliminary card.
