MMAjunkie.com (
www.mmajunkie.com) recently passed along news of the debut, and UFC officials today confirmed that UFC on FUEL TV 2 will take place April 14 at Ericsson Globe Arena in Stockholm, Sweden.
No fights have been officially announced for the FUEL TV-televised show.
However, welterweights DaMarques Johnson (15-9 MMA, 4-3 UFC) and John Maguire (17-3 MMA, 1-0 UFC) are expected to clash during the landmark show, as previously reported.
Additionally, top Swedish fighter Alexander Gustafsson recently told MMAjunkie.com he hopes his UFC 141 victory will earn him a spot on the UFC on FUEL TV 2 card.
The spring event marks the fourth international card on the UFC's schedule in early 2012. The promotion is set to visit Brazil (UFC 142), Japan (UFC144) and Canada (UFC 145) prior to Sweden in the coming months.
Ericsson Globe Arena can accommodate approximately 15,000 fans, though it's not clear what seating configuration will be used for the event. The venue is the largest hemispherical building in the world and opened in 1989.
In addition to Gustafsson, Swedish fighters Papy Abedi and Akira Corassani also are signed to the UFC. Swedes David Bielkheden and Per Eklund also recently competed in the octagon.
