The fight was called in less than a minute, which left Derrick Lewis furious.

A potential fourth fight in the Moreno-Figueiredo saga was set up inside the Octagon when the undisputed flyweight champion Deiveson Figueiredo joined Moreno ...

The high pace continued in the third round, and seemingly out of nowhere, Dober connected with a perfectly placed left hook to the body that melted Alves and earned Dober another stoppage victory. Although Alves slugged it out with Dober to end the second, Dober clearly had gained momentum and control of the fight. From the jump, Pantoja jumped on Perez, peppering him with punch and swarming him wholly.

Pavlovich made short work of Lewis in a TKO win that was heavily criticized by the Dallas crowd.

Semelsberger threw every strike in his arsenal to try and end the fight, but slowed when they clinched on the fence. Semelsberger began the fight a bit reckless ducking and throwing overhands until Morono’s jab game put a stop to it. Round one Morono came out with a plan as he began to implement a plan to use the jab and movement to land rights.

Moreno then moved in with a combo, finishing with a kick to the body. Following the win, Deiveson Figueiredo was brought into the cage — with Moreno saying he would be an example to his daughter, family, and the world, and apologizing for some past comments that had offended the champ. Back on his feet, Moreno fanned on a spinning back fist. That led to some clinch work, with Kara-France managing to stay up and separate after a Moreno takedown attempt. Moreno found a home for his left hand; about half a minute later, Kara-France did the same with his right. Round three saw Moreno planted on his back early care of a sweep, but he immediately threw up a high guard.

This was Nunes' night and she put on perhaps her greatest performance since she stopped Cris Cyborg in 2018 at UFC 232.

Kara-France tripped Moreno to the floor and hurled a slashing elbow that opened a cut under Moreno's eye. Moreno's relentless spirit shone as he returned to the feet and cranked the pressure before landing a devastating liver kick. Moreno and Kara-France fought a competitive two rounds that likely inched in Moreno's favor.

Amanda Nunes avenged Decembers defeat to Julianna Pena by unanimous decision at UFC 277 in Dallas and reclaimed her bantamweight title.

She did have to survive a threatening attempt at an armbar submission midway through the fourth round as Pena fought back. Please let me rest a little, and I'll come back as soon as possible." Nunes, adopting a southpaw stance that she has rarely shown in previous fights, stunned Pena with two right handers in the first round.

Drew Dober and Rafael Alves lived up to expectations at UFC 277, with Dober dropping his opponent with a body shot in the third round.

Alves then shot for a takedown, which Dober reversed to end the round. Dober would finish the round on the attack, however, with Alves back against the fence covering and moving. On his back was still not where Drew Dober wanted to be, however, especially with half the round still to come.

Heavyweight Sergei Pavlovich scored a first-round finish over Derrick Lewis on the UFC 277 main card on Saturday, but many felt the fight was stopped early.

“I like the ref, but I wouldn’t debate that that was an early stoppage. It was definitely an early stoppage. “I think it was too soon, but to be fair, Miragliotta is a great ref,” White said.

Julianna Pena's reign as UFC women's bantamweight champion began with an emphatic win in December. It ended in resounding defeat on Saturday night when the ...

As far as incorrect commentary during a UFC fight goes, the main event of UFC 277 misrepresented the reality of what was happening in the cage on an almost comical level. Mathetha is an excellent striker, however he is not a good wrestler and that gap in his skill set is the main reason his record is 0-2 with the UFC. Mathetha should have spent more time outside the UFC getting wrestling and grappling reps, but his affiliation with UFC middleweight champion Israel Adesanya and the City Kickboxing gym got him moved to the UFC before he was ready to compete at an elite level. Don’Tale Mayes: I know this was a heavyweight fight, but facing a short-notice opponent with less than a year of MMA experience and losing under the UFC banner is not a good look. What he did was control the fight on the feet in the second and third rounds and earn himself a second straight knockout win. Morales is extremely confident in his skills — and he should be — however, as he moves up the ranks and faces more gifted opponents, he’s going to need to close the gaps in his game. Pantoja overwhelmed Perez from the start of the bout and earned the submission win at 1:31 of the first round. Morono is on a four-fight winning streak, the lengthiest run of victories of his UFC career, which began with a split-decision win over Kyle Noke in 2016. The No. 4 fighter in the official UFC flyweight rankings took the fight right to the No. 6 ranked Alex Perez and dominated the fight in every way, ending things 91 seconds into the contest with a nasty neck crank following an impressive back take. While Nunes might not have addressed all those matters with her win over Pena in their rematch in the main event of UFC 277, she answered the most important one — and that was her standing in the present. Alexandre Pantoja: Alexandre Pantoja ended a nearly one-year absence from the octagon on Saturday and he made a statement. The only thing missing from Nunes’ win at UFC 277 was a finish.

McGregor, who along with Amanda Nunes is one of only four simultaneous two-weight world champions in UFC history, likened her win over Julianna Pena last ...

Now I'm neither 'side', I'm a fan of both women, a huge fan of both of those women' Amanda Nunes and Julianna Pena, and everyone who steps inside that f***ing octagon and makes the walk, to be honest. And McGregor even noted that they were both rear naked chokes, leading he and Nunes to switch things up in their camps and reassess before coming for dominant decision victories in the rematches. At the time when both were stepping into their respective fights, he and Nunes were heavy favourites to dispatch of Diaz and Pena.

Brandon Moreno and Kai Kara-France shared Fight of the Night at UFC 277 in Dallas, Texas on Saturday, while Drew Dober and Alexandre Pantoja took home ...

Kara-France covered up as Moreno unloaded with ground n’ pound, bringing about an end to the fight. He locked up a rear-naked choke just 91 seconds into the fight. Amanda Nunes 2) and the lightweight fight between Drew Dober and Rafael Alves.

Amanda Nunes has already established herself as one of the finest mixed martial artists (MMA) of all time.

However, it was to no avail as Nunes fended off all her attacks through brilliant counter-attacking moves. The first round was dominated by the Brazilian through her speed and movement. Nunes’ speed and trickery were simply too much for the American.

Deiveson Figueiredo confronted Brandon Moreno in the cage at UFC 277, something Dana White wishes he didn't allow.

The lifetime series between Figueiredo and Moreno is currently even at 1-1-1. Figueiredo is the champion and Moreno won the interim title Saturday with a TKO of Kai-Kara France. Initially, the faceoff had a taste of vitriol and intensity.

A devastating body kick from Brandon Moreno secured the interim flyweight title over New Zealands Kai Kara-France, and lined-up a historic fourth fight with ...

Please forgive me if I did something bad against you. "I practiced that kick so many times," said Moreno after the fight. I forgive you.

UFC president Dana White thinks referee Dan Miragliotta made an error when he stopped Derrick Lewis' fight with Sergei Pavlovich at UFC 277.

That was definitely an early stoppage. “When you jump right back up like that and you’re ready to go – listen, he was a little rocked, but no more rocked than Julianna (Peña) was three, four times in the fight, and she fought five rounds. “I like the ref, but I wouldn’t really debate that was an early stoppage.

All the best, most interesting, and unquestionably coolest fights the UFC needs to book following their latest event in Dallas, TX.

But, Morales found his power strikes in every round and made Fugitt pay for his willingness to keep the fight standing, to the tune of a 3rd round TKO. That should leave the 23-year-old poised for a solid step up next time. Dober just to see if Dober can find a way into the rankings? Instead, if the UFC really is going to do a rematch for Teixeira, I’ll say book Ankalaev vs. He has a clear reason to claim a fight with anyone holding gold at the end of the year. That pushed Ankalaev on to the TKO victory, and the seeming position of no. Unfortunately for him, Jiri Prochazka wants to fight Jan Blachowicz, and there’s a lot of talk about a Glover Teixeira rematch for the belt as well. Volkov seems like a good way for both men to stay in the conversation of the heavyweight elite. The ‘Preacher’s Daughter’ seems like a great fight to see if the 32-year-old can make a quick return to the title and keep her place among the bantamweight elite. As a result, there’s only one fight left to make and it’s a fourth bout against Deiveson Figueiredo. The Brazilian was cageside to see this interim title bout, and after the fight the two men met in the cage and agreed to a possible showdown in December, in Brazil. Is that PPV card actually on the UFC schedule? Plenty of bouts for the City Kickboxing talent to use to reassert his spot as a top contender. If the possibility was lingering, out in the ether, that Julianna Peña might just be too tough and determined for Amanda Nunes to handle after their first meeting, then it also has to be recognized that there was a distinct chance that Nunes might also be way too good for Peña to beat twice. In the wake of UFC 277, however, we’re back to asking a lot of the same old questions.

Sergei Pavlovich has no problem with the referee stoppage in his TKO win over Derrick Lewis at UFC 277.

“After the London fight, I pretty much didn’t have any rest,” Pavlovich said. “I don’t have any questions about the stoppage. Pavlovich (16-1 MMA, 4-1 UFC) defeated Lewis on the main card of Saturday’s UFC 277, wobbling him early and then swarming him with punches as Lewis stumbled down to the canvas.

What Amanda Nunes' rematch win means, a botched faceoff, and Derrick Lewis' future are among our post-UFC 277 talking points.

It’s also pretty hard to argue all the reasons Nunes shared as to why she was upset in the first encounter. To her credit, it’s clear the gap between Peña and Nunes is much closer than everyone else in the division. She proved her durability is just as strong in surviving five rounds in the rematch with Amanda Nunes, most of which was spent taking a beating. Save for a few dramatic submission attempts, there aren’t many other redeeming elements for Peña (11-5 MMA, 7-3 UFC) in this particular bout. Moreno will unify the 125-pound titles with Figueiredo at some point this year or early 2023, and it’s going to be an unprecedented fight. Figueiredo 4 will be a marquee fight, I fear it won’t have the exposure it deserves. Brandon Moreno might be the first true star in the UFC flyweight division. But watching him fight – albeit briefly – felt like this was a diminished version of the UFC knockout record holder. But there are some valid questions to be asked about Lewis after making 25 octagon appearances since his 2014 debut and being stopped in all eight of his losses during his stretch. The fact it wasn’t only hurts everyone in the long run. The nature of Ankalaev’s win unfortunately didn’t make him undeniable, and that’s the frustrating part of this result. Based off what we saw before the injury, I would feel confident in saying Ankalaev was going to win.
