Stefan Struve vs. Alexander Volkov headlines UFC Rotterdam in September

The main event of the UFC’s return to the Netherlands is now official.

On Saturday, officials announced a heavyweight tilt between Dutchman Stefan Struve and Russian Alexander Volkov will serve as the five-round headliner for UFC Fight Night in Rotterdam. The promotion held its debut event in the country in the same city back in May 2016.

Struve (28-8) is on a two-fight winning streak, having quickly knocked out Antonio Silva on last year’s Rotterdam show, followed by a submission victory against Daniel Omielanczuk at UFC 204.
