Oliveira wins the decision to improve to 22-3 and has won 5 straight fights while Nurmagomedov drops to 18-4. Good win for Oliveira.

GOOD- Sergei Pavlovich vs. Jairzinho Rozenstruik
Not a lot happens in the first round. The second round begins with a bit more action, as Pavlovich gets a takedown and works his
ground-and-pound. The third round starts with Pavlovich getting another takedown and working his ground-and-pound again. Rozenstruik is finally able to get up after minutes on the mat but it’s too late and the fight ends. We go to the judges to render their verdict.
Pavlovich wins the decision to improve to 19-3 while Rozenstruik drops to 15-6. Good win for Pavlovich.

GOOD- Sharaputdin Magomedov vs. Michael “Venom” Page
They trade a few strikes in the first round but there’s not a lot
happening so far. The second round begins with a little more action in
this round. The third round sees MVP continue to do what he’s been doing this entire fight, snipe from the outside and keep Magomedov off-balance and unsure of himself. The fight ends so we go to the judges to render their verdict.
MVP wins the decision to improve to 23-3 while Magomedov is handed his
first professional loss and drops to 15-1. Good win for Page.

GOOD- Nassourdine Imavov stops Israel Adesanya
Adesanya is primarily throwing kicks early before mixing in some punches and a knee to the body. The second round begins with Imavov
nailing Adesanya with an overhand right that drops him. Imavov unloads
with a bunch of unanswered punches to his fallen opponent and the referee is forced to jump in to stop the fight thirty seconds into the
second round. Wow, I didn’t see that coming.
Imavov improves to 16-4 with 1 No Contest and has won 4 straight fights while Adesanya drops to 24-5 and has lost 3 straight fights.
Good win for Imavov.
