The UFC have announced that they are to return to Dublin later this year on October 24th.

It is the third time the UFC will stage an event in Dublin and the second in the space of 15 months. Last July, Conor McGregor defeated Brazilian Diego Brandao as The o2 staged its first event since 2009.

It was a historic night for Irish MMA as Dublin's Neil Seery, Cathal Pendred and Paddy Holohan all won their fights. Antrim's Norman Parke and Dublin based Icelandic fighter Gunnar Nelsen were also victorious.
