Is it just me or does the UFC break a new record every time they hit a new market?
That's the case once again, as the world's largest fight promotion sold out its upcoming UFC on Fuel TV 2 show in just three hours time for the event set to take place on April 14 at the Ericcson Globe Arena in Stockholm, Sweden.
The tremendous success makes UFC® SWEDEN the fastest selling European event in UFC history.
"People have been telling me how big of a market Sweden was for the UFC and today, the fans went out and proved it," UFC President Dana White said. "I love taking the UFC to new markets. I can't wait to get to Stockholm in April because we're going to put on a great event!"
Quite the achievement for the UFC and Sweden is undoubtedly hungry for top flight mixed martial arts action. But is that what they'll be getting this Spring?
Here's the current UFC on Fuel TV 2 fight card and line-up:
Main Event:
205 lbs.: Alexander Gustafsson vs. Antonio Rogerio Nogueira
Fight Card:
170 lbs.: DaMarques Johnson vs. John Maguire
185 lbs.: Francis Carmont vs. Magnus Cedenblad
170 lbs.: Papy Abedi vs. James Head
185 lbs.: Alessio Sakara vs. Brian Stann
205 lbs.: Cyrille Diabate vs. Jorgen Kruth
170 lbs.: Besam Yousef vs. Simeon Thoresen
170 lbs.: Siyar Bahadurzada vs. Paulo Thiago
135 lbs.: Brad Pickett vs. Damacio Page
145 lbs.: Hamid Corassani vs. Jason Young

Pulling for Gustafson here...
He checks on his opponents after the fight without being told to do so to “get some fans.”
I feel divided. I like both Nogs (big fan of Big Nog, not so much Lil Nog)
But I really want to see how will Gustafsson develop and how will he perform against the top of the division.
I'm 20 years in and I still win.
who and who is fighting who?!

No way that happens, it's only a fuel card.
I think they’ll go with what they have right now. Nog/gust in the main, stann/sakara as the co-main with bahadurzada/thiago and page/pickett. The main card might only be 3 fights, the first fuel card next month only has three fights .

Big nog is getting beaten down(but not finished).
Stop feeding him to the young guys and make Shogun/Lil Nog II. I want to see another war.

Why the fuck did I say big nog? I clearly meant medium nog.

I give Little Nog a good chance.
He’s a great fighter and should be aware of what to do. Also, if Davis subbed Gustafsson I say Little Nog can do it too.
P4P TOP 5 1. Nick Diaz 2. Nate Diaz 3. Fedor 4. Overeem 5. Junie Browning … Also Nate AND Nick will both be champions of thier respective brackets. Dont Fuck With Mean Mug he will make you slob all over your most hated fighters knob 209 BITCHES!!!!!!
Lil Nog won't be able to take A. Gus down.
Yes. Im from the future.
Ron Paul 2012. Roll Tide Roll. Nick Diaz UFC Champ 2012.

I think the main card will be as follows:
Gustafsson vs Lil Nog
Sakara vs Stann
Siya Bahadurzada vs Paulo Thiago
Brad Pickett vs Damacio Page
Papy Abedi vs James Head

Hmmm...
1. Wtf? lol. Where does that 2:nd picture come from? Hate to sound like Danago or a weekend-poster… But I actually know 6 of the girls on there. 2 of them are not swedish though. Kind of easy to spot them :)
2. Going to UFC in Stockholm with 9 friends. Awesome seats! So looking forward to it!

LOL
I’m noticing a lot of sig bet LOSERS in this thread, based on the very creative and deragatory signatures. Good fun indeed.
It was me. I bought all the tickets.
"It’s Mark Pavelich calling from the Maximum Fighting Championship,
I’ve just received notice that Drew Fickett or you, I don’t care which one of you fuckers did it, has signed a contract to fight in Strikeforce this fucking weekend. I’m going to get on a fucking plane soon and go where you’re at and choke you the fuck out. I’m telling you right now, I’ve had enough of your fucking shit. First of all, I’ve sent you the fucking pictures and secondly, I placed Drew Fickett in a fight fucking months ago and five weeks prior to my main event of my fucking fight card. You’re going to give me a fucking call tomorrow or I swear I’ll get on a fucking plane and go right where you’re at right now. You’re pissing me off, I’ve been nothing but professional to you motherfuckers and you’re doing this kind of bullshit, alright? Call me back, I’m fucking pissed."
