UFC comes to the AB Hotel

Several Australian-based Ultimate Fighting Championship exponents will be on hand to meet and greet fans when the AB Hotel in Sydney hosts a special live screening of the UFC 154 event this Sunday. The event is being organised by pay television channels Fuel TV and Fox Sports.

Sydney-based fighters James Te Huna, Anthony Perosh (light heavyweights) and Bernardo Magalhaes (lightweight) will be present at the Glebe venue alongside Manny Rodriguez, Richie Vaculik and Robert Whitaker, who are contestants in Australia’s own version of the UFC reality television series The Ultimate Fighter which is screening on Foxtel channel FX.

UFC 154 has been billed as one of the most anticipated events in the sport’s history with perennial fan favourite Georges St-Pierre fighting Carlos Condit for the world welterweight championship title.

The red carpet event gets underway at the AB Hotel from 11.00am this Sunday. UFC 154 undercard fights begin at 12.00pm before the main card gets underway from 2.00pm.
