Bobby Green-Drakkar Klose, Jack Hermansson-Gerald Meerschaert booked for UFC on FOX 31

A pair of fights have been added to the final event in the UFC on FOX series this December.

A lightweight bout between Bobby Green (24-8-1 MMA, 5-3-1 UFC) and Drakkar Klose (9-1-1 MMA, 3-1 UFC) is set for UFC on FOX 31, as well as a middleweight pairing between Jack Hermansson (17-4 MMA, 4-2 UFC) and Gerald Meerschaert (28-9 MMA, 4-1 UFC).

UFC officials today announced both fights via the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.

UFC on FOX 31 takes place Dec. 15 at Wisconsin Entertainment and Sports Center in Milwaukee, Wis. The card is expected to air on FOX following early prelims on UFC Fight Pass.

Green, 31, will return to action from a nearly 11-month layoff at the event. “King” hasn’t competed since UFC on FOX 27 in January where he earned a unanimous-decision win over Erik Koch to snap his four-fight winless skid. He meets Klose, 30, who is coming off a unanimous decision victory over Lando Vannata at UFC 226 in July.

Hermansson, 30, will try to carry the momentum from his TKO of Thales Leites at UFC 224 in May. It was one of the best comebacks of the year and gave the Swedish fighter his third win in his past four UFC appearances. Hoping to halt that momentum will be Meerschaert, 30, who has won nine of his past 10 fights with all his triumphs in that stretch coming by knockout or submission.

The latest UFC on FOX 31 lineup now includes:

  • Jared Gordon vs. Joaquim Silva
  • Dwight Grant vs. Erik Koch
  • Bobby Green vs. Drakkar Klose
  • Jack Hermansson vs. Gerald Meerschaert

Henry Cejudo: Bo Nickal needs to hold his horses, ‘maybe 10 fights away from possibly becoming UFC champion’

Henry Cejudo doesn’t think Bo Nickal is quite ready for the top after UFC 300. Nickal (6-0 MMA, 3-0 UFC) remained unbeaten when he submitted Cody Brundage (10-6 MMA, 4-5 UFC) in Round 2 of Saturday’s main card opener at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. Nickal gave himself two...
