In his first fight since a brutal knockout loss to Dan Henderson earlier this month at UFC 100, Michael Bisping (17-2 MMA, 7-2 UFC) is tentatively slated to compete at UFC 105 when the UFC returns to the U.K.
MMABay, a U.K.-based outlet with ties to Bisping’s Wolfslair gym, first reported the plans. A source close to the event today told MMAjunkie.com it’s a “tentative” booking and that no opponent has been determined.
The MMAjunkie.com source also said the UFC plans to book lightweight Ross Pearson (9-3 MMA, 1-0 UFC) and welterweight James Wilks (6-2 MMA, 1-0 UFC), Team U.K. fighters who won their respective weight classes on the recent ninth season of “The Ultimate Fighter,” for the show.
