Tonight's UFC Rising show on Setanta Ireland looks unmissable

The programme focuses on Conor McGregor and his build-up to this weekend’s clash with Dennis Siver.

WE’RE IN THE midst of another big week for Irish MMA, and the build-up continues tonight on Setanta Ireland.

The latest episode of ‘UFC Rising’ will put Conor McGregor in the spotlight ahead of his crucial bout against Dennis Siver, which takes place in Boston in the early hours of this coming Monday morning, 19 January.

The 30-minute show will feature a scientific analysis of McGregor’s game by experts such as commentator and former UFC fighter Kenny Florian.

Tonight’s UFC Rising starts at 9pm — perfect timing for MMA fans who’ll be able to switch straight over after Ear To The Ground.

If the preview is anything to go by, you won’t want to miss this in-depth look at a man the show describes as “one of the most promising and polarising athletes in the UFC.”

    Great to see Robbie in form, in a decent league pre Euros… But let’s hope trap is paying attention to the fine performances of ciaran Clarke too!

    Ciaran Clark has to go to the Euros. He will be important in the WC 2014 qualifiers and a good player for us for years to come hopefully. His goal in the cup a few weeks ago was class.

    Keane is getting some great confidence boosters here. Hopefully this can continue to the summer. But defender and goalkeeper need to up the game. (oshea and given).

    Keane is on fire two absolutely top drawer goals and was Scholes like playing in front of mid field.

    I think an important question to ask is why Robbie Keane joined LA Galaxy if he still can play at a decent level if not the premiere league then surely the championship is better quality then the MLS…
