UFC Fight Night 89 went down Saturday night from the capital city of Canada, Ottawa, Ontario.
In the main event of the evening, the stakes were high, as welterweights Rory MacDonald and Stephen “Wonderboy” Thompson squared off. For MacDonald, this was the last fight on his contract and first since his war for the ages with Robbie Lawler last year at UFC 189. After that loss, a win would surely help vault MacDonald into free agency with plenty of negotiating momentum.
A Wonderboy win would be his seventh in a row and would surely position the karate champion for a title shot.
In the co-main event, fan favorite Donald “Cowboy” Cerrone faced the stiffest test of his new life as a welterweight when he stepped in against Canadian favorite son Patrick Cote.
And those were just the top two contests. There was intrigue up and down the 13-fight slate, and as always, the final stat lines only reveal so much. These are the real winners and losers from UFC Fight Night 89.
Full card results appear on the final slide.
