Although UFC 120 takes place far from North American soil, there will be a contingent of Canadian content featured on the card. Claude Patrick takes on James Wilks on the main card, Mark Holst looks for his first win in the UFC, and Spencer Fisher is being coached by Jeff Joslin. There are eight English fighters on the card, and five fighters making their UFC debut.
Here is a complete breakdown of UFC 120:
MAIN CARD
Bisping.
Condit.
Pyle in an upset.
Kongo.
Patrick.
PRELIMINARY CARD
Gustafsson.
Quieroz.
**Steve Cantwell vs. Stanislav Nedkov
(this bout has been cancelled due to a knee injury suffered by Cantwell. But, this is how it would have went)
Now, most of the time, when a fighter takes a year off, due to injuries and recovery etc., they don’t fare well. However, Cantwell is young enough and talented enough that cage rust may not be as big a factor as it could be. His crisp kickboxing and concerted aggression makes him a dangerous LHW. Nedkov is 11-0 with a strong grappling background, tenacity and he simply looks frightening. Cantwell is a good test for him.
