The Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) is in Las Vegas, Nev. tonight, March 3, for the mixed martial arts promotion’s latest fight card. This time around, the world’s most famous MMA promotion is hosting the highly anticipated fight card of UFC 222.
Competing on the night’s UFC Fight Pass prelims, bantamweights Bryan Caraway and Cody Stamann are throwing down for division dominance. This will be the first time Caraway competes inside the octagon without former longtime girlfriend Miesha Tate, as the two fighters broke up within the past years. Beyond that, the fighter’s former coach Robert Follis passed away in 2017, leaving a tough few years for Caraway.
Caraway is also rebounding from a debilitating injury, as he competes in front of the Las Vegas crowd. Check out the UFC Results from the exciting match up below.
The first round opened with a furry. Caraway fired off with a series of combinations that put his opponent on his back foot.
Caraway managed to eventually get Stamann to the canvas, in which the fighter attempted to lock in an arm bar. However, Stamann was saved by the bell.
The second round was more or less uneventful. Caraway attempted to take his opponent to the canvas again, but Stamann managed to keep things on the feet. In the end, neither fighter managed to deal much significant damage during the five minute war.
The final round kicked off with a bang. Caraway continued to pour the pressure, ultimately being unable to get Stamann to the ground. However, Stamann managed to trade with the fighter until the sound of the bell.
