Albert Tumenov vs Gunnar Nelson booked for UFC Fight Night: Rotterdam

As announced earlier today by UFC Europe on Twitter, Albert Tumenov vs Gunnar Nelson is the latest welterweight addition to the UFC Fight Night: Rotterdam card on May 8.

Tumenov achieved a significant streak of five consecutive wins in the Octagon, which began after he was defeated by Ildemar Alcantra in his UFC debut back in 2014. After defeating Lorenz Larkin with a close split decision in January, Tumenov was promoted to the Top 15 position in UFC welterweight ranking. Nelson's latest fight ended up with a defeat to Demian Maia via the unanimous decision.
