    The UFC Fight Night: Rockhold vs Bisping fight card is now complete with UFC officials today announcing the final matchup for the Sydney show. It was revealed that bantamweights Frankie Seanz (9-2 MMA, 1-0 UFC) and Aljamain Sterling (10-0 MMA, 2-0 UFC) will meet in the event opener.

    On the other end of the lineup, warring middleweights Luke Rockhold (12-6 MMA, 2-1 UFC) and Michael Bisping (25-6 MMA, 15-6 UFC) will clash in what is scheduled to be a five-round main event. Meanwhile, a lightweight tilt between Ross Pearson (16-7-1 MMA, 8-4-1 UFC) and Al Iaquinta (9-3-1 MMA, 4-2 UFC) will fill the co-main event slot.
