In the main event of UFC Stockholm, Anthony Smith submitted Gustafsson in the fourth round via rear-naked choke and, in effect, sent Gustafsson into retirement.

Former UFC light heavyweight title challenger Anthony Smith’s goal remains the same — challenging Jon Jones once again.
Smith got the biggest win of his career when he upset Alexander Gustafsson with a fourth-round submission win at UFC Stockholm on Saturday.
The win will move him above “The Mauler” in the rankings to No. 2 at least. But having only lost to Jones in March, Smith is unlikely to get another title shot soon. But that doesn’t mean he’s not targeting a rematch in the future.
“I’ll tell you the same thing I’ve told Jon – I’ll see you again,” Smith told reporters (via MMA Junkie). “And that’s what I’m working toward. I’m working toward the fight with Jon. I want to get back to the title shot, and that’s the goal. So whatever that looks like when I come back, I’ll figure out this hand injury and go from there. I wouldn’t still be here if I wasn’t chasing Jon Jones.
“I think it’s [Gustafsson] absolutely the biggest (win) of my career, probably the one I’m most proud of, just because of what happened in my last fight. Typically, guys that come off of title losses don’t bounce back like that.”
Smith suffered a broken hand in his win over Gustafsson and was also carrying undisclosed injuries heading into the bout.
Given the state of the division, he now plans on taking the summer off and recovering after making a quick turnaround following his loss to Jones.
“I can just sit at the top and let those guys fight it out,” Smith added. “I’m going to hang out up here for a while and we’ll see what it looks like later on.”

Earlier today (Sat. June 1, 2019) UFC Stockholm took place from the Ericsson Globe Arena in Stockholm, Sweden.
Attendance was a sell out at 14,319, with a gate of $2,000,000. There were also some well-deserved bonuses handed out as well. On the ESPN 2 preliminary card, Leonardo Santos pulled off a hellacious knockout win over Stevie Ray in the first round. Santos will be taking home an extra $50,000 Performance Of The Night Bonus.
Next up, Makwan Amirkhani made a thunderous return to the Octagon after a lengthy layoff. He submitted Chris Fishgold in the second round of their classic featherweight bout on the main card. He’ll take home $50,000 for a Performance Of The Night bonus as well.
Another ridiculous knockout occurred in the co-main event, when Aleksandar Rakic put his name on the map with a 42-second head kick knockout win over Jimi Manuwa. A $50,000 Performance Of The Night bonus is also heading Rakic’s way. And finally, in the main event, Anthony “Lionheart” Smith shocked a lot of fans when he submitted Alexander Gustafsson in the UFC Stockholm main event.
Smith locked in a rear-naked choke on the Swede in the fourth round, forcing him to tap. “Lionheart” also leaves with $50,000 in the form of a Performance Of The Night bonus.
