The folks in the United Kingdom will need to drink some extra coffee or energy drinks this October, as UFC 204 takes place with normal North America start times.
The pay-per-view event features Michael Bisping returning to the Manchester Arena in England to defend his middleweight belt vs. Dan Henderson. Back at UFC 100, Henderson landed the “H-bomb” in a moment that continues to haunt “The Count” to this day.
For the start times, the main card is expected to begin at 3 a.m. local time in Manchester, with all the action beginning at 11 p.m. In North America, the event will take place October 8 starting at 6 p.m.
Along with Bisping-Henderson, middleweight contenders Vitor Belfort and Gegard Mousasi collide. Ovince Saint Preux, who went the distance with Jon Jones earlier this year for the interim UFC light heavyweight title, meets Jimi Manuwa, while Stefan Struve takes on Ruslan Magomedov in a heavyweight encounter.
The rest of the lineup at this point includes Leonardo Santos-Adriano Martins, Iuri Alcantara-Brad Pickett and Samian Stasiak-Davey Grant.
