Donald “Cowboy” Cerrone will try and get back in the win column at welterweight against Darren Till in the headliner of UFC Dansk, also known as UFC Fight Night: Cerrone vs. Till, on Saturday. The card will take place at the Ergo Arena in Gdansk, Poland, and the time difference means things will get underway in the morning.

Not too early, though — the preliminary card gets underway at 11:45 a.m. ET, with the four-fight main card set to start at 3 p.m. The card is exclusive to UFC Fight Pass, the promotion’s subscription streaming service. Both the preliminary and main card will be on Fight Pass.
The co-feature will see women’s strawweights Karolina Kowalkiewicz and Jodie Esquibel up against each other. Kowalkiewicz is coming off a submission loss to Cláudia Gadelha in her last outing and prior to that she sustained her first career loss against Joanna Jędrzejczyk in a bid for the UFC Women’s Strawweight Championship.
Till is 15-0-1, and 3-0-1 in the UFC. He fought to a majority draw against Nicolas Dalby in 2015, but since then has beaten Jessin Ayari and Bojan Veličković. He was out of the sport for over a year between the draw and his next win, and he also missed weight for the fight against Ayari.
Cerrone is 32-9, and has lost his last two bouts. His last loss prior to that was in December 2015, when he lost to Rafael dos Anjos in a UFC Lightweight Championship bout. He made the move to welterweight and won four fights, beating Matt Brown, Rick Story, Patrick Côté, and Alex Oliveira.
But he lost a decision to Robbie Lawler in his last outing and was knocked out by Jorge Masvidal in the fight prior to that. He’s still a fan favorite though, and wants back in the title picture. He can start by handing Till his first career loss.
The main card will also feature a light heavyweight bout between Jan Blachowicz and Devin Clark. Blachowicz has lost four of his last five bouts, but he has been fighting some of the best in the light heavyweight division. His losses came against Jimi Manuwa, Corey Anderson, Alexander Gustafsson, and Patrick Cummins.
Saturday’s main card will open with a middleweight bout between Oskar Piechota and Jonathan Wilson. The preliminary card is headlined by a lightweight contest between Marcin Held and Nasrat Haqparast.
