You get a finish! You get a finish! You get a finish! The UFC 259 early prelims saw five of six matches end inside of the distance! The lone decision closed out this portion of prelims, with the #12 ranked flyweight, Tim Elliot, taking a grinding decision over Jordan Espinosa. There was a rather raw moment at the end of the second-round where Elliot said something to Espinosa about being a “woman beater” as he was on top of him. Nonetheless, Elliot has won back to back fights for the first time since 2016.
In the light heavyweight division, we got a slobber knocker between Kennedy Nzechukwu and Carlos Ulberg.
