It seems that no card could get the blood pumping and the nerves jittering after UFC 211, which promised wall-to-wall action and for the most part delivered. Indeed, the Ultimate Fighting Championship’s fifth trip to Stockholm feels like a bit of a letdown, with little name value and a lesser array of truly exciting bouts on Sunday at the Ericsson Globe. Still, there is enough here to make it worth the dedicated fight fan’s time.
The main event is obviously the highlight, with Sweden’s own Alexander Gustafsson looking to get back into the title picture by beating another perennial contender in Glover Teixeira.
