The UFC’s first trip to South Korea now has a main event as well as an entire main card after the promotion announced the full slate of fights on Sunday night.
The headlining bout in Seoul will be a welterweight showdown as former UFC champion Benson Henderson looks for his second win at 170 pounds as he faces former title challenger Thiago Alves.
Henderson bumped up to welterweight on short notice earlier this year where he choked out highly touted prospect Brandon Thatch before an injury derailed him for most of 2015.
