Multiple fights added to UFC 158
Looks like Mr. Joe Silva has been busy. In the past 48 hours the UFC has officially announced three separate fights that are to be added to the upcoming event in Montreal.
The stacked card already features a who’s who of top ten Welterweights, all striving for relevance, respect and opportunity within their division.
With an obvious focus on showcasing both local and native talent, the UFC has announced that Canadian Strikeforce prospect Jordan Mein will make his octagon debut against Dan Miller in what should be another intriguing Welterweight matchup.
Daron Cruickshank will face Montreal native John Makdessi and Chris Camozzi will face off against Calgary’s very own Nick “The Promise” Ring (I will never be able to take that name seriously until the day I die. In fact I’ll probably still be laughing in the after-life)
UFC 158 will take place March 16th at The Bell Centre in Montreal, Quebec. Georges St. Pierre is set to headline in a title defense against Nick Diaz. The following is a list of the fights that have been officially announced:
Georges St-Pierre vs. Nick Diaz
Jake Ellenberger vs. Johny Hendricks
Carlos Condit vs. Rory MacDonald
Patrick Cote vs. Bobby Voelker
Jordan Mein vs. Dan Miller
Daron Cruickshank vs. John Makdessi
