Going into the main event of UFC Vegas 20, fans were ready for serious heavyweight action between two great prospects.
Jairzinho Rozenstruik and Ciryl Gane showed their power and strength, but it was not quite the fight that everyone expected. After five long rounds, it was Gane who managed to work his way to the right side of the unanimous decision.
Here’s what the fighters said about UFC Vegas 20:
It is not up to the fighter who is winning to show urgency! If you’re winning, keep doing what you’re doing. I don’t understand this narrative. Winning guarantees you twice as much money and automatically promotes your career. Why risk that? Gane’s big win # UFCVegas20

Nice performance from these guys! Congratulations to Munhoz. Rivera is badass, but those calf kicks are no joke! # UFCVegas20
