The Swedish fans of MiddleEasy are awesome. I’m really happy the UFC is finally coming to see them. You would think as a traditionally neutral nation they would be a good battleground for staging fights, but instead only the usual countries like Germany and Britain get to partake in the fun. It’s a shame. Did you know during World War 2 the US was suppsoed to sell Sweden 200 aircraft but then pulled out of the deal when Sweden wouldn’t stop their trade with Germany? Yep, they had to go to Italy for the planes. I think that after 70 years of tension over this act Brian Stann and Alessio Sakara will finally settle the score.
A Swedish MiddleEasy reader named Stefan just clued us in on this fight that was broke moments ago by mmanytt.se. Here’s what they had to say about it:
Matcherna börjar landa för matchkortet på UFC on Fuel TV 2, även kallat UFC: Sweden. MMAnytt har exklusivt kunnat bekräfta att Brian Stann verbalt har bekräftat att han kommer att möta Alessio Sakara någonstans på huvudkortet.
Basically that just said that Brian Stann verbally confirmed to fight Sakara over a matter of airplanes. Thanks to Stefan from Sweden for the tip. For the entire translated article click here.
