The Ultimate Fighting Championship takes Australia by storm for the first time this Saturday, February 20th. In the main event, a world heavyweight title shot is on the line when unbeaten young gun Cain Velasquez takes on former UFC and PRIDE champion Antonio Rodrigo "Minotauro" Nogueira. Plus, UK superstar Michael "The Count" Bisping hopes to spoil the middleweight debut of the legendary ‘Axe Murderer’, Wanderlei Silva.
Main Bouts:
Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira (32-5-1) vs. Cain Velasquez (7-0)
Wanderlei Silva (32-10-1) vs. Michael Bisping (18-2)
Joe Stevenson (31-10) vs. George Sotiropoulos (11-2)
Ryan Bader (10-0) vs. Keith Jardine (15-6-1)
Mirko "Cro Cop" Filipovic (25-7-2) vs. Anthony Perosh (10-5)
Preliminary Bouts:
Stephan Bonnar (11-6) vs. Krzysztof Soszynski (18-9-1)

Goran Reljic (8-0) vs. C.B. Dollaway (9-2)
Igor Pokrajac (21-6) vs. James Te Huna (12-4)
Update: A shoulder injury suffered by Elvis Sinosic has forced the cancellation of his rematch with countryman Chris Haseman, and heavyweight Ben Rothwell has been sidelined by an illness, forcing him out of his bout with Mirko Cro Cop. Australian veteran Anthony Perosh will step in to face Mirko Cro Cop.
The rest of the now nine bout UFC 110 card remains unchanged.
