'The new era of the fighting Irish, if one of us go to war, we all go to war-' the immortal words of Conor 'The Notorious' McGregor on the upsurge of UFC interest in Ireland.
The sport is enjoying a burst of enthusiasm at the moment. And for the second time, Dublin will host a UFC night on October 24 in the Three Arena where Joseph Duffy will take on Dustin Poirier to determine who will win the chance to upgrade from the lightweight division. In addition, Stipe Miocic and Ben Rothwell will tussle in the heavyweight division while Aisling Daly will finally get her chance to perform in front of a home crowd.
The Dublin woman will step into the Octagon with Brrazilian fighter Erika Almeida in the straweaight division. It's a mouthwatering menu of fights to look forward to and this promotional video encapsulates the passion, fervor and determination that Irish mixed martial arts fighters are swiftly becoming known for.
