MELKSHAM scrapper Brad Scott is looking forward to his next fight at London’s O2 Arena next month.
Scott, 24, takes part in UFC Fight Night on March 8 where he will face Brazil’s Claudio Henrique da Silva, 31.
Scott, nicknamed ‘Bear’, claimed a win against Michael Kuiper via a round one submission in October, and is looking to add to his total of 10 UFC victories.
He said: “I’m very excited to be part of the card for the London event. I’m feeling confident after my win against Michael Kuiper in October, and since then I have been training well.
“Da Silva will be a tough opponent but I am feeling well-prepared and I can’t wait to get going now. To perform at the O2 Arena in front of such a huge crowd is something I’m really looking forward to.”
The evening is headlined by a light heavyweight bout between title contender Alexander Gustafsson and London’s Jimi Manuwa.
