Sign up for the #ESPN+ PPV and watch #UFC256: #FIGUEIREDOvsMORENO & #FergusonOliveira - DECEMBER 12th. - #UFCAPEX http://go.web.plus.espn.com/c/482924/595608/9070?sharedid=BloodyElbow Tonight, Saturday, December 12th, 2020, in the main event of UFC 256, we had a battle, an all out war for the UFC Flyweight Championship, featuring Deiveson Figueiredo with a 20-1 record, taking on ‘The Assassin Baby’ - Brandon Moreno, the favorite, with a 18-5 record. In our co-main event, we had fight veterans Tony ‘El Cucuy’ Ferguson and Charles ‘Do Bronx’ Oliveira squaring off against one another for the full three rounds, ending in a Decision win for Oliveira. Overall, this 10-bout card saw three swift finishes in Round 1, one submission, five exciting KO/TKO’s, three decisions, and the main event ending in a Majority Draw. Rounding things out, bonuses for putting forth POTN efforts went to Kevin Holland and Rafael Fiziev; FOTN honors went to ‘Figueiredo vs. Moreno’, which some are calling an easy candidate for FOTY. What a night of fights we have to share with you! Also on the card, we had an exciting women’s Strawweight bout between up-and-comer Mackenzie Dern and the Brazilian brawler Virna ‘Carcara’ Jandiroba. Dern was coming at this on a two-fight win streak, having had defeated both Randa Markos and Hannah Cifers this year. While Jandiroba was also entering the octagon off a two-fight win streak, having defeated Felice Herrig and Mallory Martin in the past year. As if that’s not enough, we also had an enthralling match-up between Kevin ‘Trailblazer’ Holland and Ronaldo ‘Jacare’ Souza at Middleweight. Perhaps this will have been the final card for Junior dos Santos, who was matched up against the undefeated 30-year old Ciryl Gane in our main event opener; which was preceded by a fully-packed undercard with two sets of prelims.
