Pickett-Easton, Brimage-McGregor added to UFC on FUEL TV 9 in Sweden



A pair of fights has been added to April's UFC on FUEL TV 9 card in Sweden.

Brad Pickett (22-7 MMA, 2-2 UFC) meets Mike Easton (13-2 MMA, 3-1 UFC)
in a bantamweight matchup, while promotional newcomer Conor McGregor
(12-2 MMA, 0-0 UFC), a highly touted two-division champion for Cage
Warriors, makes his UFC debut against Marcus Brimage (6-1 MMA, 3-0 UFC)
in a featherweight bout. UFC officials on Thursday confirmed the fights
through Swedish MMA site Kimura.se.

UFC on FUEL TV 9 takes place April 6 at Ericsson Globe Arena in
Stockholm. Headlining the event is a light heavyweight bout between
Alexander Gustafsson and former Strikeforce champion Gegard Mousasi. The
event's main card airs on FUEL TV following prelims on Facebook.

Pickett will be looking to rebound from a unanimous decision loss at UFC
155 to Eddie Wineland that set him back a bit in the bantamweight pack.
That loss snapped a two-fight win streak for the former WEC standout.
In September, he picked up a "Knockout of the Night" bonus after
dropping Yves Jabouin with one punch, befitting his "One Punch"
nickname, at UFC on FUEL TV 5 in his home country of England.

Easton will be looking for a return to the win column, as well, after
having his eight-fight win streak snapped in December with a unanimous
decision loss to Raphael Assuncao at UFC on FOX 5. Before that, he won
his first three bouts with a TKO of Byron Bloodworth and decision wins
over Jared Papazian and Ivan Menjivar.

McGregor, from Ireland, is coming off a first-round knockout of Ivan
Buchinger at Cage Warriors 51 on New Year's Eve to win that promotion's
lightweight title. He already had the 145-pound belt following a
second-round submission of Dave Hill at Cage Warriors 47 this past June.
McGregor owns eight straight wins, and all 12 of his career victories
have come by stoppage – with 11 by knockout.

Brimage in September won his fourth straight and improved to 3-0 in the
UFC with a unanimous decision win over Jimy Hettes at UFC 152. The "TUF
14" cast member has all three of his UFC wins by decision.
