After submitting Christian Quinonez, stopping the hyped Payton Talbott via unanimous decision and defeating the former champion Cody Garbrandt on the scorecards, Brazilian UFC veteran Raoni Barcelos got another unanimous decision win last Saturday over another veteran, Ricky Simon.
“I was very happy with that fight with Ricky who was a former top 10 in the organization, and already had been in main events. Definitely we had a war,” Barcelos told Sherdog.com “He caught me with some good punches in the first round, but I was able to survive and after that I was able to impose our game plan, which was to do some scrambles with him.
