Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) returned in the injured case last night (Saturday, September 8, 2018) while staging the UFC 228 from the American Airlines Center in Dallas, Texas. And of course, after getting a low score on my preview before the fight night, the event ended with nine finals, including four on the main map, such as Tyron Woodley's impressive victory over Darren Till (see again here).
Biggest winner: Tyron Woodley
This is obvious, because "The Chosen One" has proved once again that despite being constantly nicknamed champion, it will take more than bookmakers and a rash Briton to divert him from the throne of Welterweight. Woodley was dominant, showing a complete arsenal and putting the Till much bigger, giving him a solid shot, then triggering a Hellenistic shot before sinking into an airtight bid to retain his title. I mean, it was really special.
His quest to become the greatest fighter to ever compete in welterweight is still alive, and although he's not always the fan favorite, he may have gained more followers after last night's performance. . And who knows, maybe he'll start getting the much-desired respect for the promotion, which, according to many, Till wants to become such a bad champion.
Finalist: Jessica Andrade
If there was any doubt as to who should be Rose Namajunas' next challenger for his Strawweight title, Andrade all cleared them with a punch after shooting Karolina Kowalkiewicz with a right hook. I mean it was a thing of beauty.
It is now three consecutive victories for the Brazilian bomber, two more than the former contenders for the title. And spare me the speech of "Joana Jedrzejczyk deserves another crack to Rose". Not after a victory. Enough to give the ex-champions a title after another. We need new blood, which has a good head start and really deserves a ticket for the big dance. If you're going to give JJ another title shot, go ahead, do not do it until Jessica starts her turn.
The Biggest Loser: Carla Esparza
Once considered one of the best wrestlers in the women's MMA, Esparza was simply roused by Tatiana Suarez, also known as "The Female Khabib". making his way with "Cookie Monster" before finishing it on the third and final turn with strikes.
It's now two straight losses for Esparza, who has gone from 3 to 3 since losing to Joanna at UFC 185 in 2015, also in Dallas. She just can not get started, so if she wants to regain her championship dreams, maybe a move to the flyweight division for a fresh start is in order. But it will not be easier because it will be under-sized in most matches.
