Mark J. Rebilas-US PRESSWIRE
Bloody Elbow gives you a look at the next UFC event, a FUEL TV card in Macau, China on November 10th. The main event features former middleweight champions Rich Franklin (UFC) and Cung Le (Strikeforce).
Two weeks from today the UFC will mark its first ever trip to China as part of their final FUEL TV card of the year. The main event pits former UFC middleweight champion Rich Franklin against former Strikeforce middleweight champion Cung Le in a five-round battle.
For a FUEL show this is a pretty good main card, and I'm personally looking forward to Dong Hyun Kim vs. Paulo Thiago the most. Unfortunately if Stun Gun loses that's his 3rd defeat in his last 4 and if Thiago loses he'll be just 1-4 in his last 5. Paulo in particular may have the hardest strength-of-opposition list for someone who has never even fought for a title.
If you want to catch this live, you'll have to get up very early, as the main card starts at 6 AM PT. It's the closest thing to assembling the Bloody Elbow Night Crew as we'll get all year.
