John Hathaway to Face Pascal Krauss at UFC 138 in UK

News

November 5th, the UFC will be making its return to England with an event scheduled for the LG Arena in Birmingham, England. The main event is already set as Chris Leben will be facing Mark Munoz at the top of the card. Now, we’re beginning to see the card fill in as well.

John Hathaway was confirmed for a fight last week, but it wasn’t until recently that we would know who Hathaway (who is 5-1 in UFC) would be squaring off against: the 10-0 Pascal Krauss.

Krauss has nine victories via submission or TKO with one decision on his record.

Krauss enters the fight with a spotless 10-0 record with a victory over Hathaway’s countryman Mark Scanlon at UFC 122. The German fighter had to go to a decision to defeat Scanlon, but has defeated all nine of his other opponents by way of submission or TKO stoppage. He fought once before in Birmingham, under the Cage Warriors banner.

A middleweight showdown between Chris Leben and Mark Munoz heads the UFC 138 fight card.
