Top light heavyweights Alexander Gustafsson and Glover Teixeira are set to clash this spring when the UFC returns to Stockholm, Sweden on May 28 for another exciting UFC Fight Night.
Gustafsson posted the fight to his Instagram account and the UFC confirmed shortly thereafter.
"The Mauler" got back into the win column late in 2016 with a decisive victory over Jan Blachowicz to snap a two-fight win streak. Gustafsson, a native of Sweden, has a chance to jump right back into the title contention with another win in front of a hometown crowd.
Standing in his way is hard-hitting Brazilian, Glover Teixeira, winner of four of his last five fights. Teixeira's only loss during that span came against UFC 210 title challenger Anthony Johnson and he'd love nothing more than to beat Gustafsson and potentially earn another shot at "Rumble."
The UFC also announced a few more fights for the card:
Magnus Cedenblad vs. Chris Camozzi
Christian Colombo vs. Damian Grabowski
Jack Hermansson vs. Alex Nicholson
Tickets for UFC Fight Night: Gustafsson vs. Teixeira go on sale Friday, March 31.
