The UFC Apex Center in Las Vegas, Nevada was home to a great night of fights at UFC Vegas 16: Hermansson vs. Vettori. The card saw five (T)KOs and three decisions, including a split-decision.
The prelims opened with Jake Collier taking a lopsided unanimous decision over Gian Villante in a fight that wasn’t anywhere near as bad as we all thought it would be. Very good showing by Collier. That was followed up with Ilia Topuria’s sensational knockout of Damon Jackson after a pretty intense slugfest. It was a brief but exciting battle. Louis Smolka and Jose Alberto Quinonez put on an exciting scrap that ended with Smolka getting the ground and pound TKO finish in the second round.
