Here’s hoping you didn’t sleep on UFC Fight Night 98.
You probably were aware that Rafael Dos Anjos and Tony Ferguson—the second- and third-ranked lightweights in the UFC’s official rankings—were on the main event in search of the next title shot in what is suddenly the company’s most glamorous division.
But you may have been less aware that Ricardo Lamas fought Charles Oliveira on this card. Or that Diego Sanchez manned the lightweight gate against young submission guy Marcin Held. Or that arguably the top prospect in the women’s strawweight division, Alexa Grasso, made her UFC debut.
And that only scratches the surface of a deep and slept-on UFC cable card. Were you not among the true believers? Take solace. We’re here with a full recap, including the real winners and losers from Mexico City. Don’t believe the official scorecards. Read on for the real stuff from Saturday’s event.
Full card results appear on the final slide.
