If you didn’t believe it, believe it now: Lone’er Kavanagh is a true UFC flyweight title contender.
That statement could not have been more on point, based on what Kavanagh did at UFC 333, taking out Ramazan Temirov.
The two traded shots from the get-go, with Temirov opening things with a spinning body kick. Temirov put his focus on leg kicks and overhands, while Kavanagh did a lot of work behind his jab.
Temirov’s big swings started to miss, and Kavanagh took advantage. Kavanagh cracked Temirov with a big left hand and flurried his way to victory, handing Temirov his first UFC loss.
Kavanagh is now 4-2 in the UFC. He rebounds from his loss in the UFC 329 Fight of the Night against Brandon Royval.
