The October 1 UFC Live card in Washington has added a heavyweight collision featuring two men desperate for a victory.

Pat Barry takes on Stefan Struve on a card that is headlined by Dominick Cruz's bantamweight title defence against Demetrious Johnson. Also signed to the event are Anthony Johnson and England's Paul Sass.

Struve is currently 5-3 in his UFC career, but he suffered a brutal knockout in his last fight against Travis Browne. Barry is also coming off a loss after the tables were turned on him in dramatic fashion against Cheick Kongo.

Defeat for either man would leave them in a precarious position, adding extra spice to a contest that is already intriguing due to the significant size differentiation. Barry is fully a foot shorter than his rival, making the striking match-up a real spectacle.

Also added to the card is highly rated bantamweight talent Mike Easton, who will debut against Jeff Hougland.
