In a card ravaged by injuries, Whiteford v Elkins is one of the stand-out bouts featuring non-Irish fighters.
The Hammer knows all about Irish opposition though, having knocked out Team Ryano fighter Paul Redmond in Glasgow in July, but Whiteford laughed when asked if he would have liked to be fighting an Irishman at Saturday's UFC Dublin.
"Would I fuck!" Whiteford said. "Imagine going in there, fighting one of their home guys. It was like him [Redmond] when he came out to Scotland fighting a Scottish guy.
"The amount of boos he got. There were thousands of them. Fuck that shit!
"I want the crowd behind me so I'm glad I'm not fighting an Irish guy."Explore more on these topics:
