LowKick MMA will be bringing you UFC Vegas 42: Holloway vs. Rodriguez results throughout the night (Sat. November 13. 2021) live from the UFC Apex facility in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Taking main event honors in ‘Sin City’ — a high-stakes potential featherweight title-eliminator between former division best, the #1 ranked, Max ‘Blessed’ Holloway, and the streaking #3 rated challenger, Yair ‘El Pantera’ Rodriguez.
Returning for the second time this year, former undisputed featherweight kingpin, Holloway looks to solidify his status as the #1 contender once again — following masterful Octagon return in January.
Headlining UFC on ABC 1 on ‘Fight Island’, the Hawaiian scored an impressive unanimous decision victory over Calvin Kattar — setting multiple striking records en route to his damaging, one-sided judging win.
For Chihuahua native, Rodriguez, the dynamic striker makes his first Octagon outing since an October 2019 rematch victory over two-time opponent, common-foe, Jeremy Stephens in the co-main event of UFC Fight Night Boston.
The victory came as Rodriguez’s sixth in the UFC, following prior successes against the likes of Andre Fili, Dan Hooker, Alex Caceres, B.J. Penn, and Chan Sung Jung.
