UFC 273 live results and analysis: Volkanovski vs. Jung, Sterling retains and a Chimaev-Burns instant classic

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - The story coming into the fight was mainly about Khamzat Chimaev. How good was one of the top prospects to ever grace the Octagon? Could he hang with the top welterweights in the world, one of which is Gilbert Burns?

The answer to the latter question was a resounding yes. The undefeated Chimaev outlasted Burns via unanimous decision (29-28, 29-28, 29-28) on the UFC 273 main card Saturday night at VyStar Veterans Memorial Arena. It went back and forth, and both men scored punches that dropped the other. It was one of the best UFC fights in recent memory, a three-round war.
