UFC on FOX 24 has wrapped up.
In the main event, Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) flyweight title holder Demetrious Johnson put his 125-pound gold up for grabs against Wilson Reis. It was “Mighty Mouse’s” chance to tie Anderson Silva’s record for most successful consecutive UFC title defenses. Johnson was able to tie the record with a dominant performance, leading to a third-round submission victory.
The co-main event saw Rose Namajunas turn in what is arguably her best performance yet. “Thug” floored Michelle Waterson with a head kick. Some ground-and-pound led to her taking the back. Namajunas locked in a rear-naked choke to force the tap in the second stanza.
In a stunner, Robert Whittaker finished Ronaldo “Jacare” Souza in the second round. Souza took the back of Whittaker in the opening frame, but was shaken off. Whittaker then floored his opponent twice before putting him away. The win extends Whittaker’s streak to seven.
