MMA fans struggling to get through the week get a boost to help them make it to the weekend Tuesday’s UFC on Fuel TV 3: Korean Zombie vs. Poirier card. The 12 bout fight card will be split in half; six preliminary fights will steam on Facebook prior to the six main card bouts that will air on FUEL TV.
Let’s be honest, Tuesdays are useless. They’re just a day removed from Monday, but too far from the end of the week to get you excited about anything. What makes them a hell of a lot better though is some prime UFC on Fuel TV bouts. Our mid-week MMA fix will feature a possible number one contender bout, as Dustin “The Diamond” Poirier takes on fan-favorite “The Korean Zombie” Chan Sung Jung.
Yesterday the UFC held a press conference in Calgary to announce that three events will be held in Canada each of the next two years. Calgary will play host for the first UFC in Canada this year with UFC 149 on July 21st. During the press conference UFC president Dana White also announced that featherweight champion Jose Aldo would headline the card against a “to be determined” opponent.
