Several fighters made their mark at Tuesday's UFC Fight Night event in Las Vegas, with notable wins for Ukrainian heavyweight Voievodkin, bantamweight Vallejos, and welterweight Frunza.
The 6-foot-3, 263-pound Ukrainian—a prohibitive 8-to-1 underdog on some books—was one of five hopefuls to nail down anwith a rear-naked choke in the first round of their heavyweight showcase on Tuesday at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas. Voievodkin walked the former University of Minnesota linebacker backward and leveled him with a sweeping left hook. A dazed-and-confused Schoenfelder was powerless to defend against the follow-up attack.
Conceicao had issues with output throughout the 15-minute encounter. Thainara took bites out of her lower lead leg with kicks, caught her off-guard with takedowns and fought fire with fire whenever the two women exchanged punches. She kept her foot on the accelerator for the duration and never once looked like a fighter who was protecting a lead.
