Being announced today should be Rob Whiteford vs Paul Redmond and Leon Edwards vs Pawel Pawlek. I'd expect more fights to be announced in the coming days / week as tickets go on sale in less than two weeks.

Predictions: 8 of 12 Winners, 5 Perfect, 590 Points   |   Tied for 278th

I almost dont want this card to get too good- I was hoping to road trip to either this or berlin then ended up getting booked to work both weekends (on jobs where if i had to pull out of any id loose most of my shows over the summer) so i cant go to either or even watch them live.

I think glasgows going to be a really good show, the modern style round rather than oval arena bowl means a lot more people will feel close to the action- even at the top your bloody high but your still not that far from the centre should make for a good atmosphere. 
It'll have very short walk outs though- I toured through there with the harlem globetrotters last month and we had to hold back the team on the introductions because the dressing room corridor to the court was like 6 paces (because of the venues funny shape not having a long side)

I'm reading Bisping vs Leites and Dunham vs Pearson are set for Glasgow too.

Not sure if official yet.

Pretty weird that Redser's sticking to 145 ... maybe he feels that if he has time he can cut properly. I think that even when done "properly", large cuts take too much of a toll on your overall performance. Fighters may not even feel it in glaring areas like cardio. It could just make you a split second slower, "weaken your chin" that much that it makes the difference between having time to recover and sleepy time, power most likely drops.

It's not as if the UFC's current 145 division is less scary that the 155 division. Way more fighters at 155, but a ****lod of trim there and favourable matchups (even inside the top 25, quite a few aging ex-top 10 fighters on the way down) while as at 145, the minute you cross the 25th ranked fighter, you're facing a beast no matter who he is.

Another great fight added to the card - Vaughn Lee vs Paddy Holahan. Love this match up.
