Five Reasons Why I’m Super F—ing Pumped For UFC 286 In London

4. London crowd is spoiled, but awesome

That first part of the headline is just me being jealous.

The London crowd was so damn amazing when the UFC came back to UK following the pandemic that UFC president Dana White demanded a change of schedule so that the promotion would return with another event just a few months later.

Then, since England got a new champion in Leon Edwards who wanted to defend his belt on home soil, they’re now getting their third UFC event over there in less than a year – and even a pay-per-view event with a title-fight headliner this time as we’ve just discussed.

While I’m bitter that we still haven’t seen the UFC back in Sweden since 2019, despite Stockholm being somewhat of an annual destination before, I’m glad for the British fans. You can literally feel their energy watching at home on a screen, and having crazy mad lads in the arena just makes my viewing experience even more enjoyable.

The UK always delivers. Fair play.

(But seriously though, UFC, please come back to Sweden too!)
