Stefan Struve, Alexander Volkov to headline UFC in Netherlands

A five-round heavyweight matchup between Stefan Struve and Alexander Volkov will headline UFC Fight Night on Sept. 2 in Rotterdam, Netherlands.

UFC officials announced the fight on Saturday. The event will take place at the Rotterdam Ahoy.

Struve (28-8), who is from North Holland, hasn't fought yet in 2017. He was scheduled to face Junior dos Santos in February but was forced to withdraw with a shoulder injury.

The 29-year-old is looking to add to a two-fight win streak, which includes finishes over Antonio Silva and Daniel Omielanczuk. Struve is 3-1 in his last four matches.

A former Bellator MMA champion, Volkov (28-6) is 2-0 since signing with the UFC last year. The Russian heavyweight is coming off a decision win against Roy Nelson in April.
