*** CONTROVERSY! HENRY CEJUDO LOSES EYE POKE INDUCED TECHNICAL DECISION – HIGHLIGHTS! ***

UFC Seattle went down TONIGHT (Sat., Feb. 22, 2025) from inside Climate Pledge Arena in Seattle, Washington. Headlining the drenched “Rain City” card was the former “champ champ,” Henry Cejudo, who took on Song Yadong at Bantamweight (not Flyweight).

UFC Seattle’s co-main event was an important Middleweight clash between top-ranked contenders Brendan Allen vs. Anthony Hernandez.

Rounding out UFC Seattle’s main card was Rob Font vs. Jean Matsumoto (not Dominick Cruz), Jean Silva vs. Melsik Baghdasaryan and Alonzo Menifield vs. Julius Walker.

The “Prelims” were headlined by Ion Cutelaba vs. Ibo Aslan. This part of the card also had Andre Fili vs. Melquizael Costa, Ricky Simon vs. Javid Basharat and Mansur Absul-Malik vs. Nick Klein.

Sadly, this card was notable for the fights we didn’t see on Saturday night. In addition to losing Cruz from the event, we also lost Edson Barboza vs. Steve Garcia (details here) and Ketlen Vieira vs. Macy Chiasson.
