Last night UFC Vegas 5 rolled on inside the UFC APEX, despite a number of fight alterations and cancellations. One fight that went ahead as scheduled was the headliner between Derek Brunson and Edmen Shahbayzan.
In that fight, it was the more experienced Brunson who came out on top. He battered the 22-year-old prospect throughout the fight. Towards the end of the second round Shahbayzan appeared to be rendered unconscious by a Brunson elbow.
Many onlookers were shocked to see referee Herb Dean not call an end to the fight then and there. Instead, the ringside physician was called in to assess Shahbayzan.
