The Complete Guide to UFC Fight Night 96: Lineker vs. Dodson
The UFC returns to Portland, Oregon, on Saturday for the first time since 2009 with a solid offering on Fox Sports 1.
In the main event, former flyweights John Dodson and John Lineker meet in a strong matchup with implications for the wide-open bantamweight title picture. Dodson challenged twice for the title at flyweight but fell short both times against pound-for-pound great Demetrious Johnson. Lineker repeatedly failed to make the weight but has looked like a monster in three fights at 135 pounds.
