UFC 85: Jonathan Goulet vs. Paul Kelly

April 30, 2008 by Adam Morgan  

TKO Xtreme is reporting that Canadian Jonathan Goulet will be facing off against Englishman Paul Kelly in a welterweight bout at UFC 85.

Goulet is coming off a knockout victory over Kuniyoshi Hironaka at UFC 83 in Montreal. The fight earned Fight of the Night honors from the UFC and both fighters earned $75,000 bonuses for their crowd pleasing affair.

Kelly is coming off a unanimous decision victory over Paul Taylor at UFC 80 and was likely put on the card to appease the UK fans who lost a main event when Chuck Liddell pulled off the card with an injury.

Kelly is known for slugging, as is Goulet, but Goulet might have the weakest chin of any MMA fighter on the planet (although James Thompson is giving him a run for his money), so this one could end quickly.

    13 fights - quality over quantity methinks but this is definitley better value for money for the UK public. And the main PPV card looks a lot more respectable too. Goulet’s chin has nothing to worry about if he can defend against windmills…
