Good morning, fight fans! UFC Fight Night 79 in South Korea is technically happening in the morning. The prelims start at 5AM on Fight Pass, beginning with Dong Hyun Kim taking on Dominique Steele. The first chunk of the prelims look a little iffy, but once Seo Hee Ham takes on Cortney Casey in strawweight action, things should really pick up. The real fight that everyone is looking forward to is an epic clash between Tae Hyun BANG and Leo KUNTZ.
Anyway, the main card is on at 8AM ET, also on Fight Pass. It’s just a four bout main card, so things should move quickly. Doo Ho Choi takes on Sam Sicilia in fun featherweight action, Sexyama returns to Korea to face Alberto Mina, and the real Dong Hyun “Stun Gun” Kim fights Dominic Waters in the co-main event. In a weird twist, the main event is a welterweight bout between two lightweight stalwarts. Former champ Ben Henderson takes on Jorge Masvidal after the dreaded injury bug resulted in some bouts getting reshuffled.
The fights should be fun and end early for you to shove whatever leftover turkey you have into your face the rest of the day. Join Uproxx Sports for a live discussion of every single punch, kick, slam and submission!
