The UFC has finalized their UFC Fight Night 55 card in Sydney, Australia, as a bantamweight bout between Aljamain Sterling and Frankie Saenz is the last addition to the card.
The bout was first reported by MMAKanvas in Australia, with confirmation from the UFC, and will take place on the preliminary card of the UFC Fight Pass event.
Sterling is an exciting young prospect who enters his third UFC bout with an undefeated 10-0 record. He made his debut in February with a lopsided decision over Cody Gibson, and followed that up with a stoppage win over Hugo Viana in July.
The 9-2 Saenz is on a five fight winning streak in his career, a run which includes a decision win over Nolan Ticman in his UFC debut back in August.
The UFC Fight Night 55 event will be headlined by the middleweight bout between Michael Bisping and Luke Rockhold on Nov. 8, with the full card airing live on UFC Fight Pass.
