Bogdan Guskov, an Uzbek welterweight on the UFC roster, expressed his hope that the promotion will one day hold a tournament in Tashkent, the capital of his homeland.
"One day, I hope the UFC will come to Tashkent. I would really like to fight there. The UFC has three fighters from Uzbekistan and we can put on a great show. Uzbekistan has great MMA fans, I love them. I would like them to watch UFC fights live, not just on TV," MMA Junkie quoted Guskov as saying.
At last week's UFC On ESPN 55 event, which took place on April 28 in Las Vegas, Guskov earned an early win over Ryan Spann. This fight was the co-main event of the event. After this win, Bogdan expressed his hope that he will get a title shot soon.
