NOTTINGHAM, England – Hawaiian Brad Tavares continued his gritty
ascension of the UFC’s 185-pound division with a hard-fought three-round
win over British fighter Tom Watson.
Tavares used an impressive jab and a nice mix of wrestling attacks to grind out a 15-minute victory over a very game opponent.
The middleweight bout was part of the preliminary card of Saturday’s UFC
on FUEL TV 5 event at Capital FM Arena in Nottingham, England. The
fight streamed on Facebook prior to a main card on FUEL TV.
