Name recognition might have been low, but the action and talent level were both amazingly high in the main event of Saturday’s UFC Vegas 57 fight card. In that bout, Mateusz Gamrot scored a decision win over Arman Tsarukyan in an action-packed and thrilling 25-minute lightweight scrap.
While the judging seemed to be the major topic of discussion in the immediate aftermath of the contest, the fact is that these two competitors gave it their all in what was a pivotal contest in the division. And while Gamrot got the nod from the judges, it’s difficult to see Tsarukyan as a loser in any way other than the results of the fight.
