Looks like this show will be on Bravo Sunday 20th July at 2100. A great result all round for UK MMA fans.

That's fantastic news if this is on Bravo

Without a doubt this is the greatest heavyweight line up that's ever been assembled. Puts the UFC heavyweight division to shame.

It'll be interesting to see just what sort of business it does given that the UFC have announced a 'spoiler' show on the same evening.

Is this a one off?? Has Fedor signed a multi-fight contract with Affliction?

Jackson's since been arrested and sectioned after going on an erm...rampage.

Slvia had his ass handed to him by Fedor, the best heavyweight there is. Pity we won't see him at the UFC.
