The Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) is in Glendale, Arizona tonight for the highly anticipated fight card of UFC on FOX 29. The world’s most famous mixed martial arts promotion is hosting the stunning night of fights inside the Gila River Arena for the Glendale crowd.
Now the event’s main card is in full swing. Taking to the center of the octagon next are middleweights Israel Adesanya and Marvin Vettori. Check out the UFC results down below.
Vettori opened up the fight with a furry, but Adesanya managed to evade many of his opponent’s strikes. The fighter then landed an accidental eye poke on Vettori. After a momentary pause, the fight returned to the action.
This was seemingly a dominant round for Adesanya.
The second round opened up with a similar pace. This time around, Adesanya began to pour on the pressure and put Vettori on his back foot.
Adesanya put on another dominant performance, picking his opponent apart with what seemingly became a five minute kickboxing match.
Vettori returned in the final round with a vengeance, quickly getting a takedown on his opponent. However, Adesanya was able to get back to his feet without taking much punishment.
Still, neither fighter was able to get a finish before the sound of the bell. This one has gone the distance.
