On Saturday the leading MMA promotion returns to Australia for another edition of UFC Fight Night.
The card is set to take place at the RAC Arena in Perth, Australia. UFC Perth will be headlined by a matchup at 170 pounds, when former UFC welterweight champion Jack Della Maddalena (18-3) takes on top contender Carlos Prates (23-7). The Perth-bred Della Maddalena aims to bounce back from a loss to Islam Makhachev at UFC 322 last November, which cost him the 170-pound championship title. “The Nightmare” has two knockout wins, and Performance of the Night bonuses, in his last two outings.
