Ketlen Vieira and Sijara Eubanks were
both eager for a shot at the title bout, but they
were both standing in each other's way. It
ended up being a close fight that went all
three rounds. last almost three years– OH And a take down. There we go, right, to
start slinging those punches together and
then you add in that take down and she was
successful with it.
Both fighters got to
display some great boxing. But by the end, Vieira
had more confirmed strikes than Eubanks. Vieira won the fight by
unanimous decision and her quest for a title
would continue. Next up, we had New
Zealander, Kai Kara- France taking on the
American, Brandon Royval these two open the
first round with some heavy hits. Kara-France landed a
punch that stunned Royval who then responded with
a spinning back fist and a knee. The rest of the round
was a struggle on the ground. It wasn't until round
two that Royval got Kara-France into a
standing guillotine that forced the New Zealander
to tap. He's got it. That's tight, John. That's tight. You see, it wins from
Kai Kara-France. He might go to sleep
here. Oh, he's popping out. He's popping out, he's
readjusting his feet. Royval submits Kai Kara-France This was a huge
submission victory for Royval, and we can't
wait to see him back in the octagon A co-main event featured
fan favorite Dominic Reyes going against
the Polish power that is Jan Blachowicz,
both would be fighting for the title that was
recently vacated by John Jones.
This fight was
incredibly hyped. And with no audience
members of cheer them on, you could practically feel
the tension in the air before the end of round
one Blachowicz was landing
some heavy kicks on Reyes and it showed. Reyes
had a huge bruise already showing on his
side. Before the end of the second round they both had exchanged
huge combos. Finally, Blachowicz
landed a heavy hook that knocked Reyes out.
open up some nose damage for Reyes I didn't notice it until
now. Reyes really starting to
open up
but Jan Blachowicz continues to
land.
Thirty seconds to go
in the round. He's hurt! He's the undisputed UFC
light heavyweight champion!
This gave the Polish power the victory
and earned him the undisputed light
heavyweight championship title. It was finally time for
the fight that we'd all been waiting for: the
undefeated middleweight champion Israel Adesanya
would face the also undefeated Paolo
Costa. This was the second
men's title bout in UFC history to feature two
undefeated fighters.
There was some trash
talk tossed around before this match up, so
we knew somebody's ego was bound to be crushed
in the end, right away in the first round, Izzy's
strategy was clear, he dealt some brutal leg
kicks on Costa to slow him down. Adesanya
looked like the fresher fighter for most of the
round. But that didn't stop
Costa from showboating before the end of the
second round. Adesanya got a
take down and after a couple of ground and
pounds secured his win by KO.
and then he's out! and then he's going to go to the leg again. Knock down for Adesanya! Costa trying to recover! That is it! Quick night at the
office for the champion Israel Adesanya!
After throwing a little less than sportsmanlike
hip thrust on Costa, Adesanya kept the belt
around his waist from here and move on to the
light heavyweight division to face co-main
eventer, the Polish power Jan Blachowicz
in a champion versus champion match up for
the title. But that's a story for
another video. What was the most
exciting moment of the night? Is there any
