UFC SWEDEN ADDS VOLKAN OEZDEMIR VS. ILIR LATIFI, JIMI MANUWA VS. ALEKSANDAR RAKIC

The Octagon’s return to Sweden is starting to form up. UFC Fight Night 152 occurs June 1 in Ericsson Globe Arena in Stockholm, Sweden, along with the subsequent four streaks are added to the card that is expected to be headlined by Alexander Gustafsson vs. Anthony Smith.
Volkan Oezdemir vs. Ilir Latifi, UFC Fight Night 152
An intriguing light heavyweight bout between Volkan Oezdemir and Ilir Latifi is the most noteworthy of the new spells added to UFC Fight Night 152. ESPN’s Brett Okamoto broke the news. Oezdemir (15-4) is 3-3 at the UFC but is now mired in a three-fight losing skid such as a split decision loss to Dominick Reyes at UFC London just over a week ago. Clearly, he wants to get back in there and place that close loss behind him. Latifi (14-6, 1 NC) is 7-4 in the UFC and many recently dropped a choice to Corey Anderson. Both men are just below the elite level of the greatest light heavyweights but are better than gatekeepers, making this a close one to call. Despite his losing skid I slightly lean towards Oezdemir, but Latifi fighting at home in Sweden would be the difference in this struggle and that I anticipate a very close gaming lineup.
Jimi Manuwa vs. Aleksandar Rakic, UFC Fight Night 152
Another exciting light heavyweight bout will see Jimi Manuwa take on Aleksandar Rakic. Manuwa (17-5) is 6-5 from the UFC and is currently riding a three-fight losing skid. He was among the very dangerous light heavyweights in the world at one time, but the game appears to have passed by and at age 39 he seems to be about the downside of his career, even though he can still surprise with a violent knockout. Rakic (11-1) is currently 3-0 in the UFC and is coming off of a huge knockout win over Devin Clark. Just 27, Rakic seems like a force at 205lbs for a long time to come, and I would expect hm to be a big favorite to win this particular battle.
Makwan Amirkhani vs. Chris Fishgold, UFC Fight Night 152
Featherweights Makwan Amirkhani and Chris Fishgold are set to clash, and the UFC has made the bout official. Amirkhani (14-3) is 4-1 overall in the Octagon and is coming from a split decision win over Jason Knight. At one point in time he seemed like a prospective featherweight contender, but accidents and long layoffs have stopped his career. Fishgold (18-2, 1 NC) has been finished by Calvin Kattar in his UFC debut but rebounded with a submission win over Daniel Teymur his out time. I expect Amirkhani to be favored because he is a favorite fighter, but I provide Fishgold a good chance of winning this bout.
Nick Hein vs. Luigi Vendramini, UFC Fight Night 152
Nick Hein takes on Luigi Vendramini at a lightweight bout. Combate broke the information. Hein (14-4, 1 NC) is 4-3 overall in the UFC but has dropped back-to-back conflicts to Damir Hadzovic and Davi Ramos. Vendramini (8-1) was undefeated with all his wins coming by stoppage before getting knocked out by leading contender Elizeu Zaleski dos Santos in his UFC debut. Moving down a weight class and getting a complete camp ought to be valuable to Vendramini, who should be a small favorite here.
Bea Malecki vs. Duda Santana, UFC Fight Night 152
And lastly, women’s featherweights Bea Malecki and Duda Santana match. Malecki (2-0) is a Sweden indigenous who seemed on TUF but didn’t fare well on the series as she dropped. Santana (3-0) has won all three of her ace bouts but hasn’t fought because 2017. Flip a coin for this one as both women have plenty of question marks .
