In addition to an April 11th card in Krakow, Poland, which will feature Mirko “Cro Cop” taking on Gabriel Gonzaga for a second time, the UFC has announced two more cards that will go down in Europe.

At a press conference today in Stockholm, Sweden, the UFC announced that the promotion is heading to Berlin, Germany for a card on June 20th, and then to Glasgow, Scotland for another event on July 18th. The UFC has held events in Germany before, but it will mark the first time the company has held an event in Scotland.

“People at home have been asking the UFC to come to Scotland for so long now, so I just know this will be a sellout,” Scotland’s Joanne Calderwood reportedly relayed at the press conference. “It would be a dream come true for me to fight in Glasgow for the UFC. The opportunity to step inside the Octagon in front of a home crowd would be something I’d never forget.”

The Glasgow card will be hosted by SSE Hydro and the Berlin event will take place at the 02 World. No bouts were announced for the upcoming cards.
