Taking centre stage in the eagerly anticipated main event at the O2 Arena will be home favourite Jimi Manuwa as he tackles American rival Corey Anderson.

The clash brings together the fighters currently ranked #4 and #6 respectively in a highly competitive light-heavyweight division currently headed up by champion Daniel Cormier and #1 contender Anthony ‘Rumble’ Johnson.

Manuwa comes into the bout riding the crest of a wave after his spectacular destruction of #8-ranked Ovince St Preux at UFC 204.

And with Cormier and Johnson set to rematch at UFC 210 in just three weeks’ time, Manuwa knows victory would put him firmly in the frame for a potential title shot later this year.

However, the big-hitting Londoner would be foolhardy to underestimate Anderson, who initially rose to prominence by winning The Ultimate Fighter 19 in 2014.

The 27-year-old is also on an upward trajectory again after bouncing back from a controversial points loss to #5-ranked Mauricio Rua at UFC 198 with an emphatic ground-and-pound obliteration of Sean O’Connell in December.

He is a dextrous, nimble all-round athlete who will presumably respect Manuwa’s superior striking power and look to tap into his wrestling pedigree by shooting for takedowns rather than trading excessively on the inside.

Anderson has been making noises about frustrating Manuwa and leading him into the metaphorical deep waters of the fight, as the Briton has never been beyond the third round.

And with Manuwa no doubt targeting a showreel knock-out to delight his home faithful, a fascinating clash surely awaits at the top of a bumper bill.

The co-main event promises a similar contrast in styles as Gunnar Nelson takes on Alan Jouban in an intriguing welterweight contest.

Nelson, a team-mate of lightweight champion Conor McGregor, is a submission expert renowned for his patient approach to breaking down opponents.

Don’t expect the Icelandic star to dazzle with flurries of strikes, as he has only thrown about 170 of them in his eight–fight UFC career to date.

Instead, he will look to deliver the spectacular by locking in his trademark rear-naked choke, which gave him his three most recent wins over Albert Tumenov, Brandon Thatch and Zak Cummings.

Jouban, on the other hand, is a front-foot competitor who targets knock-out successes or out-working his rivals on the judges’ scorecards.

The 35-year-old comes into the bout on a three-fight win streak and was particularly impressive in taming Mike Perry last time out in December 2016 in Sacramento.

His all-action style would ordinarily lend itself perfectly to ruffling up Nelson and attempting to unsettle his rhythm.

However, it will be interesting to see if Jouban adopts a more considered stance to reduce his risk of getting involved in any exchanges on the canvas.

The other frontline attraction on the main card is the final UFC outing for one of the promotion’s most popular and experienced fighters in Brad Pickett.

After 38 fights and over 12 years of gruelling warfare in the octagon, the Londoner has decided Saturday’s bout with Marlon Vera will be his swansong.

It promises to be an emotional occasion for the 38-year-old as he dons his famous trilby hat one last time before branching out into coaching.

Leading a potential expansion of the American Top Team stable into the UK appears to be the next chapter in the story of the man affectionately known as ‘One Punch’.

But first he will want to go out on a high by seeing off the threat of Vera, 24, who was drafted in at nine days’ notice after original opponent Henry Briones withdrew.

Expect Pickett to come out all guns blazing in a bid to cut the young buck down to size in a final hurrah on his home patch – it should be fun to watch.

The main card is rounded off by a featherweight clash between exciting British prospect Arnold Allen and submission artist Makwan Amirkhani, with both putting unbeaten fledgling UFC records on the line.

Heading up a bumper preliminary card is Joseph Duffy, the man arguably best known for beating McGregor after just 38 seconds of a Cage Warriors bout in 2010.

The Irishman suffered a tough points loss to #9-ranked lightweight Dustin Poirier at UFC 195 but will hope to build on a subsequent victory over Mitch Clarke in January 2016 by taking care of veteran Reza Madadi.

Also keep an eye out for another lightweight in the shape of highly-touted Marc Diakiese, who crushed Lukasz Sajeweski in an impressive debut at UFC 204.

The Doncaster fighter faces Teemu Packalen and told BT Sport ahead of the bout that he is determined to prove to UFC fans that the hype around him is justified.
