Blaydes tagged him again then landed a flying knee strike, but Lewis covered up well. Blaydes went for a single leg takedown, but Lewis stuffed it. Lewis caught him with an uppercut and Blaydes quickly fell backwards as Lewis was throwing extra shots. 

Ketlen Vieira vs. Yana Kunitskaya

Vieira avoided taking any shots before she scored a takedown and dominated the first round with control on top in half guard. The second round saw much of the same as Viera managed to take her down. However, Yana scrambled and got on top where she rained down strikes. Vieira managed to get to her feet for a minute, but Yana pulled her back down. Vieira was back up in seconds and ate a head kick for her efforts. The third round saw Vieira score a takedown and did some damage on top. At one point, she got Yana’s back.

Rosa went for another knee bar, but let go of it as the second round came to a close. Minner took him down to start off the round and locked in a head/arm choke. Rosa got out of it. The third round saw Miner get a takedown, but Rosa went for a kimura only to have Minner get out of it. Minner got the decision win. 

Chris Daukaus vs. Aleksei Oleinik

They went straight to the clinch. Oleinik tried to fall on top of him, but that didn’t work and got punched a few times as a result. Chris wobbled him with a right hand. Chris unloaded on him a few seconds later up against the fence and that was a wrap.

Hawes just gave him no breathing room to do anything. Hawes got another takedown then moved into half guard. Imavov was landing elbows from the bottom. Imavov came out and stunned him with a few shots before Hawes clinched up with him, but was grabbed the fence. Imavov continued to swing and Hawes nearly fell over.
