UFC Fight Night 59 is set to go down on Sunday January 18th from the TD Gardens in Boston, Massachusetts. The event is headlined by the return of red hot featherweight prospect Conor McGregor, as he looks to punch his ticket to a title shot against dominant champion Jose Aldo. McGregor faces German striker Dennis Siver, as he looks derail the hype train and upset the odds in Boston.
Former lightweight champion Benson Henderson returns to face Eddie Alvarez Donald Cerrone for the third time in the co-main event. “Smooth” will hope to rebound from his crushing knockout loss to Rafael Dos Anjos in 2014, but he faces a very tough and streaking “Cowboy”, who is 10 times the fighter he was in the WEC (World Extreme Cagefighting).
TUF veteran and dangerous striker will face Costa Phillipou Louis Taylor also on the main card, and there’s an interesting lightweight battle between Gleison Tibau and Norman Parke.
