There are reports from Swedish media outlets that Gustafsson is injured & his bout w/ Mousasi if off. @mmafighting is looking into now.

Besides the fact that this card has nothing now, that was a really compelling/interesting fight

honestly, that was the fight i've been most anticipating since the new year.
I hope it's an april fools joke. I hope they are just moving the jokes to the 31st since nobody will trust anything on the 1st. Nothing from UFC or Gustaffson's camp has said anything and this has been out for a few hours.

The fight is still on, but the injury is true.
Quote :
Despite an injury to light heavyweight contender Alexander Gustafsson, suffered recently during a training session, UFC president Dana White says the fight Saturday night against Gegard Mousasi is still on.
Gustafsson is scheduled to the face the former Strikeforce titleholder on Saturday in Stockholm, Sweden.
But Gustafsson's ability to compete came into question on Sunday after Sweden-base website MMAnytt.se revealed that the fighter had been cut above an eye while training and the nation's MMA Federation likely would not clear him to fight.
White later confirmed Gustafsson's injury, but refuted that the Federation would likely rule against allowing him to compete on Saturday.
"The fight is not off," White told ESPN.com on Sunday.
White added that Gustafsson wants to compete Saturday and that the MMA Federation in Sweden has not determined he is unfit to compete.
Gustafsson is ranked No. 3 among light heavyweights by ESPN.com. He has a professional record of 15-1 and is currently on a six-fight win streak.
Mousasi (33-3-2) will make his UFC debut against Gustafsson. During his most recent outing, on Jan. 12, Mousasi submitted veteran Mike Kyle in the first round.
ESPN.com MMA blogger Chuck Mindenhall contributed to this report.

So basically they're going to increase Gustafsson's purse and guarantee him a top ten ranking despite the result. Think I might lay money down on Mousasi now.

Wand would get decapitated by Mousasi. That wouldn't happen

it obviously wouldn't mean the same for the rankings but it would still be a pretty fun fight to watch

Rumor is he cut 26lbs in 3 days. He will probably shoot in over and over. Hopefully he gets stuffed and KTFO out quickly so Mousasi can take a real fight ASAP.

Aww fuck. Well hopefully Dana makes him an offer he can't refuse. Like re-schedule the Gus fight but label it an "official #1 contender fight".
