Upsetting Night in Stockholm (UFC Fight Night 53 Review)
It is never an easy thing to move away from home and try to perform at the highest level possible in an intense competition. Yet that is what many North American fighters do time and time again as they consistently travel to every corner of the earth to fight whoever they can. Many times it is just out of necessity as they look to get as many fights as they can in the UFC to give them the best chance at making an impression.
UFC Fight Night 53 Preview
The UFC travels overseas once again on another busy day for the promotion as UFC Fight Night 53 marks the first in a double header for the day.

The UFC would travel to Ireland for the second time for UFC Fight Night 46 and they would feature one of the most exciting fighters in the UFC. The UFC is always looking for new places to go and new fans to get to as they continue to expand globally.
