BJ Penn and Rory MacDonald Lead Fan-Friendly, Stacked Card into Toronto for UFC

There are some upcoming events which I'm looking forward to watching. UFC 150 is one such event, because Edgar and Henderson will have their rematch for the lightweight title. UFC 151 is another, because Jones and Hendo will throw down in their title fight.

However, the one event I'm looking forward to above both of these cards is UFC 152, which will take place in my home base of Toronto.

Toronto has had two UFC events thus far, UFC 129 and UFC 140. Both of those cards were stacked, and the events were fantastic.

Simply put, Canadian fans love their mixed martial arts.

UFC 152 will be no different: The atmosphere will be electric, especially because of the matchmaking job Joe Silva and Sean Shelby have done thus far.

Canadian welterweight monster Rory MacDonald will face the recently un-retired BJ Penn. This matchup should be exciting, as both fighters are warriors who compete at the highest level.

In a featherweight scrap, Jimmy Hettes, who many see as the future of the division, will come out to fight hard-hitting  Marcus Brimage, an alum of The Ultimate Fighter 's14th season.

Michael Bisping has been calling out every middleweight fighter he can in recent times. He finally got an answer, in the form of Brian Stann: a British fighter against an American fighter on Canadian soil. 

A true multicultural experience.

As for the main event, Toronto plays host to the first-ever flyweight championship fight. Joseph Benavidez and Demetrious Johnson will be the two combatants in the cage for that fight.

These are the fights announced for the Toronto card to date, but more are on the way. This card is shaping up to be one of the most exciting, fan-friendly cards in recent memory.

Be prepared for fireworks and dramatic fanfare on September 22!
