Jailton Malhadinho He will not have fond memories of UFC Vegas 113. At the event held this Saturday (7), the Brazilian suffered against Rizvan Kuniev and was overturned for three rounds. Unable to impose his takedown game, the Brazilian, who was much lighter, came out worse in the striking exchanges and ended up losing by unanimous decision.
While the result was terrible for Malhadinho, the fight itself didn't please the fans. The fight lasted the stipulated 15 minutes, with a good portion of it taking place in the clinch and against the cage. As a result, the fighters remained more entangled than actually delivering good strikes in the octagon. The most impactful blows came from the Russian, who made use of his advantageous physique.

It's true that Rizvan didn't attack much, but he did create danger with elbows and straight punches. Jailton tried to attack, but he struggled, didn't open up his game, and didn't pose a threat to his opponent.
