LAS VEGAS – While far from a barnburner, Raphael Assuncao’s unanimous-decision victory over L.C. Davis assures he’ll have a home in the world’s top mixed-martial-arts promotion.
The Brazilian featherweight used his always-dependable ground game and improved striking skills to post a much-needed victory in the featured preliminary-card bout at Thursday’s WEC 52 event.
It’s the second-to-last show before the WEC is merged with its sister promotion, the UFC, in January.
