Rounding things out, bonuses for putting forth POTN efforts went to Jimmy Crute & Jessica Andrade; and FOTN honors went to Mateusz Gamrot vs. Guram Kutateladze. Tonight’s card showcased a heavily-anticipated featherweight main event battle for the chance at title shot against Aleksandar Volkanovski. It was between the #2 ranked Californian, “T-City” Brian Ortega, who was returning off a long break after a Dr. Stoppage, which was caused by Max Holloway way back at UFC 231 in Dec., 2018; tonight he was brawling with the #4 ranked, Chan Sung Jung ‘The Korean Zombie’, who entered the octagon on a two-fight win streak, with the most performance bonuses in UFC history in his favor. Ortega had been back in the lab all that time, training hard to transform himself into a new and improved version of himself; he achieved his goal, defeating the Zombie via a solid and unarguable Unanimous Decision, with some impressive moments throughout the five-bout fight. Also on the card, a co-main event at strawweight, also meant to determine who gets a shot at the title, between the vicious dynamo, Jéssica ‘Bate Estaca, aka: Pile Driver’ Andrade, who moved up in weight to stop the UFC’s #1 ranked women’s flyweight; Katlyn ‘Blonde Fighter’ Chookagian. Andrade was coming off of 2 losses to Rose Namajunas and Weili Zhang, while Katlyn had just been victorious up against Antonina Shevchenko on May 30th of this year. Regardless of those fight records, Andrade would make quick work of the clash, bringing an abrupt end to the bout after only 4:55 of Rd 1, with brutal body hooks to her opponent, dropping her defenseless to her knees. As if that’s not enough action, we opened the night with an exciting fifty-one second knockout dealt to Mark Striegl by Said Nurmagomedov; which was followed up by another 1st Rd knockout later on the main card, when Jimmy Crute punched out Modestas Bukauskas in just 2:01. We would get to enjoy all of this & more on this card tonight; join us to discuss all the action...
