The Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) made its way to Las Vegas, Nev. for last night’s highly anticipated UFC 216. The mixed marital arts promotion put on a stunning set of fights, with two exciting title fights on the main card. Tony Ferguson and Kevin Lee faced off for the interim lightweight title in the night’s main event, with Ferguson getting a title earning submission finish over his opponent. UFC flyweight champion Demetrious Johnson broke the UFC record for most consecutive title defenses with his submission victory over Ray Borg. Of course, the title fights were not the only great match ups on the night’s card. UFC lightweights Bobby Green and Lando Vannata entered a bloody, fight of the year contender on the preliminary card. Now there are replays of the epic battle for all to enjoy.
Lando Vannata dropped Bobby Green early in the fight, but failed to finish his opponent after the stunning strike. Later in the fight, Vannata would go on to land a point deducting illegal knee to the head of Green. Vannata would go on to likely regret the strike, as the bloody war went the distance and ended in a draw.
