Jeremy Kennedy earns decision over Rony Jason, wants Fili or Elkins next

In the featured bout of UFC Fight Night 106 on UFC Fight Pass, Vancouver, British Columbia’s Jeremy Kennedy took on hometown talent Rony Jason. Kennedy was able to utilize his great clinch work and wrestling takedowns to earn himself a unanimous decision.

It wasn’t the easiest of fights, as Kennedy was stunned by not one, but two flying knees from the Brazilian. He kept composed and utitlized his ground game to nullify anything Jason had thereafter. In the third round, the 24-year-old was able to capitalize on this and take Jason down four times.

We all know judging in Brazil is difficult to come into as an outsider, but “JBC” was able to lock down all three judges scorecards in enemy territory–including a 10-8 round by one.
