UFC middleweights Mike King and Cathal Pendred are set to face off and make their UFC debuts this weekend at UFC Fight Night in Dublin at The O2. Having both featured on Season 19 of The Ultimate Fighter, King and Pendred fought alongside each other as team mates under the guidence of MMA icon B.J. Penn, however the friendship will be on hold come fight night. Pendred has recieved a lot of hype and excitement during his transition from Cage Warriors Champion to UFC contender, and King feels that the Irishman has much to live up to.
