Gunnar Nelson and Jimi Manuwa Get Opponents to Finalize UFC on Fuel 5 Card

Gunnar Nelson and Jimi Manuwa Get Opponents to Finalize UFC on Fuel 5 Card

Quote:

Two top prospects will make their debuts coming up in England this September and now both Gunnar Nelson and Jimi Manuwa have their opponents.

Both bouts take place at UFC on Fuel TV 5 set for Nottingham, England on Sept 29.

Nelson comes to the UFC as a grappling prodigy under legendary teacher Renzo Gracie, while also looking for his tenth consecutive victory.

Welcoming Nelson to the Octagon will be Pascal Krauss, who will look to bounce back from a loss in his last fight to John Hathaway in May.

Also added to the upcoming UFC on Fuel TV 5 card is a light heavyweight bout between undefeated British slugger Jimi Manuwa and former Ultimate Fighter competitor Kyle Kingsbury.

I'm being serious here, but this is arguably my most anticipated card of the year next to the Brazil card. There are so many underrated and talented fighters on this card and I think 90% of these cards could be FOTNs and really tear down the house. This card should be awesome.

Current card:
Stefan Struve vs. Stipe Miocic
Dan Hardy vs. Amir Sadollah
Brad Pickett vs. Yves Jabouin
John Hathaway vs. John Maguire
Che Mills vs. Duane Ludwig
Paul Sass vs. Matt Wiman
Kyle Kingsbury vs. Jimi Manuwa
Andy Ogle vs. Akira Corassani
Tom Watson vs. Brad Tavares
Pascal Krauss vs. Gunnar Nelson
Jason Young vs. Robbie Peralta
Jorgen Kruth vs. Fabio Maldonado
