The Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) is set for its first event of 2018.
When it comes to success, 2017 proved to have its ups and downs in the UFC. The promotion will look to lean towards a year similar to 2016 this go-around. Starting off 2018 is UFC Fight Night 124.
Tonight’s (Jan. 14) card takes place inside the Scottrade Center in St. Louis, Missouri. Headlining the card will be a featherweight tilt between Jeremy Stephens and Doo Ho Choi. Vitor Belfort vs. Uriah Hall was scheduled to serve as the co-main event, but the bout was canceled when Hall was sent to the hospital due to complications from weight cutting.
