Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) was back at it again, as the WME-IMG mixed martial arts (MMA) promotion staged UFC Fight Night 101 last night (Sat., Nov. 26, 2016) from inside the Rod Laver Arena in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. Headlining the event was a middleweight bout between Robert Whittaker and Derek Brunson which saw both men swing for the fences in an action-packed one-round fight that ended with Whittaker knocking out Brunson to earn his sixth straight win, fifth in the middleweight division.
Biggest Winner: Robert Whittaker
His fight against Brunson may not have received a lot of from the media or UFC public relations machine, seeing as how it was sandwiched between UFC 205 and UFC 206, but it was an exciting scrap, even if it didn’t go past round one.
