It may not have pleased the Japanese audience, but light heavyweight Ryan Bader got the job done against Quinton “Rampage” Jackson.
Avoiding the PRIDE veteran’s power, Bader outworked Jackson on the feet and outwrestled him on the mat for a unanimous-decision victory.
The bout served as the co-main event of UFC 144, which took place at Saitama Super Arena in Saitama, Japan. It aired live on pay-per-view following prelims on FX and Facebook.
