The eighteenth installment of UFC on FOX should be quite the doozy.
Headlined by a light heavyweight clash between knockout specialist Anthony “Rumble” Johnson and surging veteran Ryan Bader for No. 1 contender rights, Saturday’s card stands to deliver in fashion.
Outside of the main event, an ultra-important heavyweight bout between Josh Barnett and Ben Rothwell adds even more power to UFC on FOX 18. That, too, offers title implications in a division in which Can Velasquez was just replaced by Stipe Miocic for UFC 196’s championship bout with Fabricio Werdum.
For all four headliners, this weekend represents a crossroad in their respective careers. Some need to prove they can deliver on the grandest of stages, while others need to show they still have enough gusto left on their high-mileage motor.
Find out what’s at stake for each top-bill fighter entering the first FOX card of 2016.
