Theodor Berggren

Overview

Two UFC fights, two stoppage losses, and a takedown defense that is far better than the UFC average. Theodor Berggren, a welterweight from Umea, Sweden, nicknamed "Simba," is 0-2 in the UFC and 8-5 as a professional across all promotions.

Both UFC losses came by KO/TKO, and he carries that two-fight losing streak into his next fight.

UFC Career

Berggren debuted in the UFC at UFC Fight Night: Fiziev vs. Torres, where Daniil Donchenko stopped him by KO/TKO at 1:35 of round 2. His second fight, at UFC Fight Night: Moicano vs Nolan, ended in round 2 as well: Rodrigo Sezinando won by doctor's stoppage.

Two fights is a small sample. Both ended in the same round.

Fighting Style

Berggren is a striker who doesn't get much done on the feet. He lands less often than most, and he is hit more than most, with defense that is a real weak spot.

Takedown defense is the exception. He is very hard to put on the mat, and he rarely goes looking for takedowns or submissions himself, so his fights stay standing.

That combination tends to decide fights on the feet. Both of his UFC losses ended by KO/TKO.
