A number of memorable UFC moments have taken place in Australia, but as a whole, UFC Fight Night 55 was easily the organization’s best event as a record number of stoppages took place Friday at Sydney’s Allphones Arena.

10 reasons to reserve your weekend for UFC Fight Night 55 and 56

BAD MMA News — Fri, 07 Nov 2014 17:05:59 +0000

Separately, UFC Fight Night 55 and UFC Fight Night 56 aren’t much to look at, being top-heavy as most cable-TV and Internet-streamed cards are. But toss them together, and you’ve got a pretty entertaining handful of fights – if you’re willing to tune in on back-to-back evenings. UFC Fight Night 55, which streams live tonight in the U.S. on UFC Fight Pass, marks the promotion’s annual trip Down Under — and its fourth trip to Sydney at Allphones Arena — as it keeps a foothold in a market with divided feelings on cage fighting . The octagon is still illegal in Western Australia, but this past December’s UFC Fight Night 33 event showed Aussies still turn out for a fight, and the promotion certainly delivered when Antonio Silva and Mark Hunt squared off. UFC Fight Night 56, meanwhile, touches down Saturday in a new city, the whimsically named Uberlandia in Minas Gerais, Brazil, which sits a short drive away from previous stops in Belo Horizonte and Brasilia (the event takes place at Ginasio Municipal Tancredo Neves, with main card fights airing on FOX Sports 1 following prelims on FOX Sports 2 and UFC Fight Pass)

UFC Fight Night 55′s Dylan Andrews ‘can’t see anything’ but war with Sam Alvey

BAD MMA News — Thu, 06 Nov 2014 03:17:49 +0000

SYDNEY – Nearly one year after he suffered his first UFC defeat, Dylan Andrews (17-5 MMA, 2-1 UFC) is back at UFC Fight Night 55 and said he’s ready to climb back into the win column against Sam Alvey (23-6 MMA, 0-1 UFC). While losing isn’t an entirely foreign feeling for Andrews, it’s not one he wants to become accustomed to at the sport’s highest level. After starting his UFC career with back-to-back knockout wins, Andrews was defeated by Clint Hester in December 2013 and has been sidelined ever since. The defeat alone hasn’t put Andrews out of action for the past 11 months. He’s dealt with lingering shoulder issues for years, but during the fight with Hester his shoulder dislocated and he was physically unable to continue

While many believed the conversations for “Fight of the Year” were over, Mark Hunt (9-8-1 MMA, 4-2-1 UFC) and Antonio Silva (18-5-1 MMA, 2-2-1 UFC) threw a worthy candidate into the discussion in the UFC Fight Night 33 main event.
