The UFC's return event to Sweden on April 6 continues to fill up, as Swedish MMA site MMANytt.se reports that lightweights Reza Madadi and Michael Johnson will meet on the card.
Johnson hopes to bounce back from a setback loss at UFC 155, which came by decision against Myles Jury. That defeat halted his momentum, as he had won three straight fights, including a thrilling come from behind win over Danny Castillo last October.
Iranian-born Swede Madadi looks to bounce back from a split decision loss of his own, suffered against Cristiano Marcello at UFC 153 in Brazil. He now returns to his home country, hoping to pick up his second win inside the Octagon.
The event takes place from Stockholm's Ericsson Globe Arena on April 6, headlined by the light heavyweight bout between Alexander Gustafsson and Gegard Mousasi.
