The last time the UFC went to Boston, it was during the NFL playoffs and Conor McGregor was the headliner. They’re returning to the TD Garden on January 17th, although it’ll be after the NFC divisional round and not the conference title game, and the main event will be bantamweight champion T.J. Dillashaw against Dominick Cruz. The co-main should be 5 rounds but sadly isn’t, but still promises to be a good fight, as former UFC lightweight champion Anthony Pettis takes on former Bellator lightweight champion Eddie Alvarez. A quality bout just recently confirmed is a lightweight contest between Beneil Dariush and Mairbek Taisumov.
This card is just about complete, as there are 13 fights announced for the show. Here’s a look at the list of fights confirmed for this Fox Sports 1 event:
