Osipczak vs. Riddle on tap for 105

TUF contestant and rising UK star Nick Osipczak is all set to face Matt Riddle at UFC 105, sources close to the bout have disclosed to MMA Unltd.

Both men have agreed to the bout and, whilst bout agreements haven’t been signed, it looks very likely that it will go ahead at the upcoming UFC 105 event in Manchester, England.

Osipczak impressed on The Ultimate Fighter, fighting his way into the house by knocking out Tommy Maguire and then dishing out another KO to American adversary Mark Miller.

He lost on points to finalist DaMarques Johnson but then went on to despatch the tough Frank Lester by rear naked choke at the finale.

Riddle proved himself capable of delivering the knockouts as well on TUF 7, brutally separating Dan Simmler from his senses, and he has since gone on to post three wins inside the Octagon via unanimous decision.

A good wrestler, he poses a stern test for the Rough House fighter but it looks set to be an interesting contest.
