Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) was back on cable television over the weekend (April 6, 2013) with UFC on FUEL TV 9: "Mousasi vs. Latifi," headlined by a light heavyweight contest pitting top International star Gegard Mousasi against unheralded local talent (and emergency fill in) Ilir Latifi.
"The Sledgehammer" was swinging wild, but got lit up for 15 minutes en route to a unanimous decision loss.
The Ultimate Fighter (TUF) 9 champion, Ross Pearson, needed two rounds to slap the taste out of Ryan Couture's mouth, while former TUF 10 hopeful Matt Mitrione got back into the win column with a 19-second destruction of Philip De Fries.
And let's not forget the highlight-reel debut of Conor McGregor.
In cased you missed any or all of it -- or just want to keep the discussion alive -- below are links to all the major storylines borne from Saturday afternoon's event in Sweden.
