LONDON – Morgan Charriere is ready to put on a show in front of a sold out UFC London crowd.
Charriere (20-10-1 MMA, 2-1 UFC) faces Nathaniel Wood (20-6 MMA, 8-3 UFC) in Saturday’s UFC Fight Night 255 (ESPN+) featherweight main card opener at The O2 in London.
Wood is a familiar name for Charriere, who also competed under the Cage Warriors banner for years.
“I was really happy to hear the news and the name,” Charriere told reporters, including MMA Junkie, at UFC Fight Night 255 media day. “And to know that I’m fighting in front of a crowd and not at the Apex – I was really happy. And it was Nathaniel. I know him. We know each other.
“We have a great history because of Cage Warriors. He was the bantamweight champion, I was the featherweight. I saw him succeed here in the UFC. I know what he brings, I know what I bring, so exciting matchup.”
Most of Charriere’s losses have been close
