Bengaluru, February 21: The Ultimate Fighting Championship head to Europe this weekend to host UFC Fight Night 145: Blachowicz vs. Santos at the O2 Arena in Prague, Czech Republic on Saturday (February 23).

The thirteen fight card apart from the headliners is very less impactful, but there are some local talents to watch out for as UFC make their first visit to Czech Republic.

A light heavyweight bout between former KSW champion Jan Blachowicz and Thiago Santos is set to headline the event, while heavyweights Stefan Struve and Marcos Rogerio de Lima will fight in the co-main event.

Blachowicz comes into the weekend's fight on a four-fight winning streak with his most recent result being a submission win over Nikita Krylov at UFC Moscow in September 2018. In ten fights since his move to UFC in 2014, the Prince of Cieszyn has dropped four fights.

Santos, meanwhile, is fresh off a second round knock out of Jimmi Manuwa and the Brazilian is on a three fight winning run. "Marreta" Santos has lost five of his seventeen fights in the promotion with his most recent loss coming via first-round KO to David Branch in April 2018.

As far as the co-headliner is concerned, Skyscraper Struve will look to snap his three-fight losing streak when he meets Rogerio de Lima, who comes into the fight fresh off a decision win over Adam Wieczorek.

In the other feature bout on the card, the first female Czech UFC fighter Lucie Pudilova battles Liz Carmouche at women's stawweight in front of her home crowd.

Also on the main card, Gian Villante meets Michal Oleksiejczuk at light heavyweight, John Dodson fights Petr Yan in a bantamweight bout and finally Magomed Ankalaev takes on Klidson Abreu at light heavyweight.

The preliminary card is filled with some top European talent with likes of Daniel Teymur, Damir Hadzovic, Ismail Naurdiev, Rustam Khabilov and Damir Ismagulov all set to be involved.
