Középsúlyú bajnoka Rafael Carvalho (12-1) will defend his title against Dutch striking ace Melvin Manhoef (30-12-1) in the main event of a fantastic night of fights that also includes a co-main event between Pat Curran (21-7) és Georgi Karakhanyan (24-5-1), who square off in a featherweight scrap that has future title-shot implications written all over it.
