Zelaznik says UFC "very likely" to make Swedish debut in November

The Ultimate Fighting Championship continues to blaze new ground, and Sweden is apparently on the current "to do" list.

While UFC president Dana White in February confirmed to MMAjunkie.com (http://www.mmajunkie.com) that the organization was targeting Sweden for a 2011 event, UFC exec Marshall Zelaznik has a more defined target in mind.

Specifically, November.

Following this past weekend's UFC 127 event in Australia, Zelaznik confirmed with Swedish MMA news website Kimura.se that the promotion is currently holding dates at a handful of Swedish venues for a potential event on Nov. 5.

"We're holding dates, but that's pretty common for us," Zelaznik told Kimura.se. "We'll hold dates all around any of the markets we like, trying to make sure that if we want to go, we have the opportunity."

And just how likely is the UFC to touch down in Sweden before the end of the year?

"It's very likely," Zelaznik said. "We've had some really good success speaking with the groups down there to be able to bring the event in. It's one of our biggest markets."

Zelaznik said the UFC is discussing potential sites in both Stockholm and Malmö, among other places. The UFC's U.K. division head hopes to have more available on the potential date later this week.

It will either be in Malmö because of the bigger arena and the close communications with Denmark (Copenhaguen 20 mins with subway) and the continent. But Stockholm is also possible because of the simple fact that its the capital.

I wouldnt mind if it came to Malmö myself....

I cant believe I asked Dana about coming to Sweden soon on a recent Q n A and he said it was in the works to go to all places, little did I suspect he was serious. Or was it my question that made the difference? I would love to think so! :))

Props to UFC for bringing the events to all corners of the world! :ympeace:
