We kick off a UFC double header with the Octagon set up in the SSE Arena in Belfast Northern Ireland, for UFC Fight Night 99; headlined by a Middleweight rematch between Gegard Mousasi & Uriah Hall.
Their first meeting back in September of 2015, saw Mousasi control the 1st round with his ground game. In the 2nd round Hall would land a spinning back kick followed by a flying knee and the finishing punches. Mousasi insists this outcome was a fluke and has since won 3 straight, including TKO’s of Thiago Santos and Vitor Belfort. Hall has wen the other way with consecutive losses to Robert Whittaker (ud) and Derek Brunson (tko).
