Jared Cannonier vs. Gregory Rodrigues - UFC Vegas 102 Highlights

Jared Cannonier weathered an early storm and scored an impressive fourth-round TKO over the heavy-hitting Gregory Rodrigues in the UFC Vegas 102 co-main event.

As expected, Rodrigues came out swinging in the opening round and managed to drop ‘The Killa Gorilla’ not once, but twice. Even so, ‘Robocop’ was unable to capitalize as Cannonier utilized his wrestling to recover and escape the round.

Rodrigues switched gears in the second round, allowing Cannonier to lead the dance, but business picked back up in the third when the Brazilian started to let his hands go late in the round. However, it was Cannonier who would land the biggest blow of the fight, connecting with a nasty elbow in close that sent Rodrigues crashing to the canvas.

Cannonier jumped on his man and unleashed some ground and pound, but there wasn’t enough time left in the round to finish things.

Even though Rodrigues made it out of the third round, the damage was done and he looked worse of wear while heading back to his corner.

Before long, referee Herb Dean had seen enough, stepping in and stopping the fight mere seconds into the penultimate round.

Andre Petroski Upsets Rodolfo Vieira in Entertaining Firefight - UFC Vegas 102 Highlights

Andre Petroski scored a sizeable upset at UFC Vegas 102, earning a unanimous decision victory over the heavily favored Rodolfo Vieira.

Despite being a battle of two world-class grapplers, the opening round was contested primarily on the feet. However, that was not for a lack of trying, particularly on Vieira’s part who launched his first takedown attempt 90 seconds into the scrap, only to get met with a check left that momentarily put him on the mat.

Vieira tried a couple more times to get Petroski down, but couldn’t complete any of his four takedown attempts in the first.

While Vieira continued to struggle with the takedowns in the second stanza, his hands proved more than capable of going toe-to-toe with Petroski. Throughout the round, Vieira pumped his jab and lit up his opponent with some well-timed combinations.

With the fight potentially even, Petroski started to open up a bit more in the third. That resulted in him surrendering his first takedown of the fight, but Petroski quickly scrambled back to his feet and bloodied Vieira with a big one-two. Vieira shot in for a last-minute takedown but was unable to finish it before the final horn.
