UFC Fight Night: Sandhagen vs Font Results

The flyweight from Kazakhstan ran his winning streak to 14 straight with a second-round submission win over Dana White’s Contender Series (DWCS) alum Ode’ Osbourne. He put Osbourne on the canvas and kept him there throughout the first, and after returning him to the canvas early in the second, Almabayev worked around to the back, looked for the submission, and squeezed out the tap.

This was an excellent showing for the 29-year-old newcomer, who moved to 18-2 with the victory, instantly announcing his presence in the 125-pound weight class. | Official Scorecards

Woodson’s length and experience ruled the day, as he was able to chip away at Buzukja at range, stinging him with an accumulation of body shots and teep kicks to the midsection. When they grappled, it was the veteran that got the better of things there as well, spending the back half of the second round in top position hunting for chokes.

While the finish didn’t materialize, this was a sound, dominant showing for the DWCS graduate, who moved to 10-1-1 with the victory, extending his unbeaten streak to four. This was a tough ask of Buzukja on very limited notice, and the LAW MMA representative should look better with a full training camp next time out. | Official Scorecards

That’s four straight wins for the American Top Team representative, who moves to 15-4-1 overall with the victory, while Hadley falls to 2-2 in the UFC and 10-2 with the setback. | Official Scorecards

Jackson dominated the opening round, taking the fight to Quarantillo both standing and on the canvas, trying to get the durable New York native out of there early. “Billy Q” rallied back in the second, his pace, conditioning, and constant pressure wearing on Jackson, and in the third, both men had their moments, with Quarantillo continuing to chip away and Jackson scoring with the single biggest strike of the round, a head kick late in the frame.

The judges were tasked with determining the winning, and all three saw it the same way, awarding Quarantillo the unanimous decision victory. Great fight between two veteran stalwarts in the 145-pound ranks. | Official Scorecards

Through the first two rounds, Harris barely landed a strike, with Wells taking the fight to the canvas and dominating the action. But in the third, Harris defended Wells’ takedown attempt and quickly locked up an anaconda choke, squeezing tight and putting Wells to sleep.

What an incredible rally for the 36-year-old veteran, who picked up his second straight victory and moves to 4-1 in the UFC with the come-from-behind win. Just a gutsy, opportunistic effort from “Moçambique” to secure the finish. | Official Scorecards

When the scores were added up, it was Phillips that came out ahead, giving the MMA Lab product his second consecutive victory and fifth win in six UFC starts. After starting his time in the Octagon with five straight victories, Barcelos has now dropped two straight and four of his last five to fall to 17-5 overall. | Official Scorecards

Klein hurt Bahamondes on the feet in the first, wobbling the towering Chilean lightweight before roughing him up on the ground and slicing him open with an elbow. The striking battle was closer in the second, but Klein continued to be the quicker of the two, as well as the superior grappler, which held over and carried through in the third as well.

After starting his UFC run at featherweight, Klein is now unbeaten in four starts at lightweight, moving his record to 20-4-1 with the victory, while the setback halts the 25-year-old Bahamondes’ three-fight winning streak and dropped his record to 3-2 inside the Octagon. | Official Scorecards

Much of the first round was spent with the two men trying to find their range and get reads on the other, with Boser working behind a sharp jab and check left hook and Camur looking to close the distance and land in tight. In the second, the Canadian found a rhythm, landing combinations on the DWCS grad and trying to drown him with a relentless pace. Camur endured and had some success in the third, but Boser stayed on him, matching his strikes and grinding in tight.

The judges were tasked with rendering a verdict and all three awarded the fight to Boser, who got himself back into the win column and moving forward in his new surroundings. For Camur, it’s a third consecutive loss, dropping him to 1-3 in the UFC and 6-3 overall. | Official Scorecards

After giving Movsar Evloev all he could handle in his short-notice debut, Lopes jumped on a triangle choke in the early stages of his fight with Gavin Tucker on Saturday. While Tucker was able to defend the hold momentarily, Lopes locked up the choke and then stretched out the Canadian’s arm, rolling through into mount and collecting the tap.

It’s been an outstanding couple of months for the Mexico-based Brazilian, and he’s just getting started. The 28-year-old is now 22-6 for his career and turning into a must-see attraction in the talent-rich featherweight division. | Official Scorecards

The Fortis MMA man was pressing the action, backing Jacoby into the fence, but the veteran kickboxer fired back a counter right after catching one himself and put Nzechukwu on the deck, swarming to pound out the finish.

After suffering back-to-back losses ahead of this one, the first-round stoppage win gets Jacoby moving in the right direction again, as he moved to 7-2-1 in 10 fights since returning to the promotion. Big win for the Factory X Muay Thai man, who ended Nzechukwu’s three-fight winning streak in a hurry on Saturday. | Official Scorecards

Now 2-0 since returning to action earlier this year, with both wins coming by way of guillotine choke in the second round, Suarez is now 11-0 overall. Suarez continues to impress each time out, and having now turned back a pair of former strawweight titleholders, she could very well be next in line to challenge for that title following the UFC 292 clash between Zhang Weili and Amanda Lemos. | Official Scorecards

The timing of Sandhagen’s takedowns and his ability to deal with sweep attempts while maintaining top position were all outstanding, as he needed one entry in every round to put Font on the deck and keep him there for long periods of time. While the fans weren’t always enthused, it was a smart, tactical approach from the cerebral bantamweight.

Sandhagen went hunting for a D’arce choke in the back half of the final stanza, but couldn’t find the finish, settling for a clean sweep of the scorecards instead. The Colorado native went seven-for-seven with his takedown attempts and has now won three straight to cement his standing as one of the top contenders in the bantamweight division. | Official Scorecards
