Alexander Gustafsson vs. Anthony Smith on tap for UFC on ESPN+ 10 headliner in Stockholm

Two light heavyweight contenders coming off title-fight losses to Jon Jones will attempt to put themselves back into contention at UFC on ESPN+ 10 in June.

Sweden’s own Alexander Gustafsson (18-5 MMA, 10-5 UFC) will headline in his home country when he meets Anthony Smith (31-14 MMA, 7-4 UFC) on the June 1 card, which takes place at Ericsson Globe in Stockholm and streams on ESPN+.

Bullshit fight. Should have been Alex vs Johnny Walker.

Disagree completely. Fighting Gus in Stockholm is too big a step up for Walker in both competition and pressure. And even if you do want to put him in against the top contenders, better to have them coming off a win.

No need to rush him that quickly.

Coming off a win? Didn't he win his last fight , but I agree on its a big step.

It’s not Walker...but better than Anderson.

Gus seems mentally weak
