Alexander Gustafsson had himself one hell of a night Sunday at UFC Fight Night 109.
The dangerous Swede put on one of the best performances of his career, demolishing Glover Teixeira en route to a grisly fifth-round knockout in front of his home crowd in Stockholm. Gustafsson then flipped the script, proposing to his girlfriend amid a raucous reaction in Sweden’s Ericsson Globe arena. With such a dominant win, “The Mauler” immediately thrusted his name back into contention for the UFC light heavyweight title.
Check out reaction to Gustafsson’s handiwork below, plus the best of the rest from a roller-coaster night at UFC Fight Night 109.

That fight showed it’s not the chin it’s the back of the ear or temple. Hard to take that shot and stay standing. #ufcstockholm
