UFC 75 in London - The Champion vs. Champion bout will be a unification fight as originally speculated.
UFC 75 will take place on September 8, 2007 - 02 Arena, London, England and British fighter Michael Bisping and
France’s Jess Liaudin will appear on the fight card.
The O2, a recently renovated arena that could hold more than 20,000 visitors. The arena, however, is still
known as the Millennium Dome to most English residents. It opened in 2000, but because of financial problems,
closed later that year. It’s currently being renovated and is expected to host the 2009 World Gymnastics Championships
and the artistic gymnastics and basketball event at the 2012 Summer Olympic Games.
UFC 75 odds have come out early for a couple fights at several betting sites. Rampage is a slight favorite over Dan Henderson.
CroCop comes back for more, this time against another top striker in Kongo. Bisping and Hamill find out who takes the next
step toward a title shot.
Bisping was the light heavyweight winner of The Ultimate Fighter 3, and after defeating Eric Schafer with a
first-round TKO at UFC 66, he dazzled a Manchester crowd at last month’s UFC 70 event with a second-round TKO
of Elvis Sinosic. UFC president Dana White has stated numerous times that Bisping will be a key factor in the
UFC’s expansion into the European market.
As well Liaudin, too, will face an as-of-yet unnamed opponent. He made his UFC debut at that same UFC 70 event
and the Frenchman’s quick armbar submission of Dennis Siver created one of the undercard’s most lauded fights.
Quinton "Rampage" Jackson became the first unified champion in mixed martial arts history when he won a unanimous decision over Dan Henderson. Michael Bisping squeaked out a split decision over Matt Hamill, and Houston Alexander makes short work of Alessio Sakara.
