UFC Fight Night 101 Weigh-In Results: Only One Fighter Overweight
The UFC returns to Melbourne, Australia, for the first time since November 2015 with Robert Whittaker vs. Derek Brunson this weekend. Featuring two rising stars in the middleweight division, UFC Fight Night 101 showcases a host of promising talent from down under. The Rod Laven Arena hosts Saturday’s (November 26) instalment of the UFC, with six main card and seven prelim bouts. As well as Whittaker vs. Brunson, Andrew Holbrook vs. Jake Matthews features at lightweight.
Kyle Noke returns at welterweight for a battle with Omari Akhmedov, and Chris Cammozi takes on Daniel Kelly in the feature prelim. Lacking in the star power of a pay-per-view line-up, UFC Melbourne has all the tools needed to be great card regardless.
