The Octagon remained in Nevada for tonight’s UFC Vegas 91 event, a thirteen-bout fight card headlined by Matheus Nicolau vs. Alex Perez.
The flyweight main event resulted in a nasty second-round knockout victory for Alex Perez. The former flyweight title challenger was able to connect with a huge right hand that sent Matheus Nicolau crashing to the Octagon canvas in defeat.
UFC Vegas 91 was co-headlined by a light heavyweight bout featuring Ryan Spann taking on Bogdan Guskov. The contest proved to be a tale of two rounds. ‘Superman’ found success in the opening frame thanks to some good punches and a dominant showing on the ground.
