This card has went under the Radar with some decent fights on it.
Michael Bisping VS Tim Kennedy - The trashtalking has been flowing from both sides. This is a big fight in the contedership picture at 185 pounds. Bisping get's a marquee matchup with a win and will be int he title shot discussion. Kennedy is 2-0 in the UFC and this would be the biggest win of his career.
Patrick Cote VS Kyle Noke -Coaches from TUF Nations. Doesn't seem to be a lot of bad blood between these two but still an interesting match up. Both guys are coming off of wins in their latest UFC bouts. Noke will be fighting with a lot of pride as team Australia failed to reach the finals on the show.
Sheldon Westcott VS Elias Theodorou - TUF Nations middleweight finale. Theodorou swept through the house but seemed to rub viewers the wrong way at times with his cocky attitude. Westcott who battled a neck injury and almost had to leave the house dominated the house in a similar fashion.
Chad Laprise VS Oliver Aubin-Mercier - TUF Nations Welterweight finale. Laprise put most the house on notice with a crushing knockout of team mate Kajan Johnson. Aubin-Mercier had little problem mowing his way through Australians Jake Matthews and Richard Walsh.
Dustin Poirier VS Akira Corassani- Two dynamic featherweights meet on the opening bout of the main card. Poirer who has a 7-2 UFC remains right outside of the elite featherweights currently ranked #6 by the UFC. Corassani who is 3-0 in the UFC is looking to get his biggest win yet.
Sam Stout VS KJ Noons - These two feared strikers at 155 pounds meet in Quebec. Stout who is coming off a victory over Cody McKenzie will look to put together back to back wins for the first time since 2011. Noons the Strikeforce import got his first career UFC Victory last October with a decision win against George Sotiropoulos.
Sarah Kaufman VS Leslie Smith - These two battled it out just last year on the Invictia 5 card. The fight was voted one of the best Women MMA fights of all time. Kaufman got a very close split decision victory. Many people think Smith won the fight. Fast forward to 2014 after 2 opponent changes for Sarah Kaufman, Smith steps in on 8 days notice.
Ryan Jimmo VS Sean O'Connell -Jimmo looking to get back on track will take on newcomer Sean O'Connell. O'Connell is 15-4 and has a victory over long time UFC Vet Marvin Eastman
George Roop VS Dustin Kimura- George Roop is looking to bounce back after his 2 fight winning streak was snapped by Franciso Rivera. He has a tough task as Hawaiian Dustin Kimura is looking to build off his January win over Jon Delos Reyes. Kimura has 8 submission victories on his MMA record.
Mark Bocek VS Mike De La Torre- Long time UFC vet Bocek finds himself in a weird position. After his original opponent Evan Dunham was ruled out with an injury. He finds himself fighting newcomer Mike De La Torre. Torre who holds a 12-3 MMA record is looking to burst on the scene picking up a big victory over the always game Bocek.
Richard Walsh VS Chris Indich- Teammates on TUF Nations. Walsh and Indich are most likely fighting for a UFC roster spot. Walsh made it to the semi finals of the show before losing to Oliver Aubin- Mercer. Indich didn't make it out of the elimination round.
Nordine Taleb VS Vik Grujic - Taleb who was one of the favorites to win the show didn't get pass the elimination round. Grujic who was perhaps Australia's stand out fighter on the show picked up a first round TKO over Canada's Luke Harris. This match up is likely for a UFC roster spot.
Mitch Gagnon VS Tim Gorman- Gorman who you may remember from TUF 19. Made it to the show but was forced off due to an injury suffered in his fight to get into the house. Gorman finally gets his shot in the UFC against tough Canadian Mitch Gagnon. Gagnon currently riding a 2 fight win streak with victories over Dustin Kimura and Walel Watson is looking to make it 3 in his home country.
