The UFC was in Sweden on Saturday, presenting UFC on Fuel TV 2—a card that was headlined by a light heavyweight scrap between Alexander Gustafsson and Thiago Silva.
The event, the first UFC card to be held in Sweden was witnessed by 15,428 fans who packed the sold-out Ericsson Globe Arena.
The card, a fine tablesetter for the upcoming UFC 145, was very entertaining, with only four of the 12 fights going the distance. One of the fights that went the distance was the main event, marking the first time in seven UFC fights that Gustafsson had heard scores read for one of his fights.
What follows are some of the more memorable moments from Saturday’s fight card.
