Well the UFC train has come into Dublin’s fair city and with it they bring the usual host of festivities and usual antics with fighters and local customs.
And because the UFC is now in the Emerald Isle what better local custom than the age old game of Hurling. So watch as a whole host of fighters try their hand at a game of Hurling Keepy-Uppy.
