After nearly 3 years away from the city of London, UFC is set to make its return in 2022. The previous UFC London card took place on March 17th, 2019 pitting, Darren Till against Jorge Masvidal. This was also the infamous night that gave birth to perhaps the most famous moment and meme ‘Three-piece and a soda’ that fans simply could not stop quoting.

Masvidal earned a devastating KO win over hometown hero Darren Till, propelling his resurrection. Now, it looks like the promotion is ready to deliver more incredible moments for the British fans, as the upcoming London card picks up heat.

According to a report by GroundPoundMo MMA, the promotion has added a key light heavyweight match-up to the card. Rising light-heavyweight contender Paul Craig (15-4-1) is going to challenge top ten contender Nikita Krylov (27-8).
