The UFC on ESPN+ 38 bonuses have been released.
The event took place inside Flash Forum on Yas Island, Abu Dhabi aka Fight Island. Headlining the card was a clash between Brian Ortega and Chan Sung Jung.
This fight saw Ortega outclass Jung. Ortega was coming into this fight on a long layoff and he couldn’t have looked any better. It was a new version of him with an incredible performance. Jung never looked to fire out of the gate. Ortega’s performance was highlighted with a knock down in the first round and another in the second frame. Ortega got the decision win.
The co-main event saw more action between Jessica Andrade and Katlyn Chookagian. The original co-main event was scrapped between Ante Delija and Ciryl Gane in a heavyweight showdown. However, it got pulled on Wednesday due to contractual issues with Delija as he’s still under contract with the PFL.
This fight saw it end in the first round. Andrade found success everywhere as she managed to score two takedowns before finishing it. Andrade landed back-to-back right hooks to the body and Chookagian had enough.
