UFC Vegas 119 Preview
Last week was weird because of the bonkers White House card. Things are back to normal now. That means largely forgettable fights with unrecognizable fighters at the UFC APEX.
Yay!
All snark aside, the main event tonight is top quality. Manel Kape vs. Kyoji Horiguchi should produce a new title challenger at Flyweight. This is also a rematch from 2017, when Horiguchi submitted Kape in the RIZIN ring. Both men are riding good win streaks with a couple of exciting finishes. This should be good.
The co-main event is Navajo Stirling vs. Ion Cutelaba. Stirling will try and keep his hype, and undefeated record, pristine in this fight against the wily veteran. Cutelaba will try cause a shock, just like he did to Oumar Sy last time out (re-live that here).
Rounding out the main card is Hyder Amil vs. Christian Rodriguez, Melsik Baghdasaryan vs. Murtazeli Magomedov and Vinicius Oliveira vs. Andre Fili. If you can pick two of those guys out of a line-up you can call yourself a hardcore mixed martial arts (MMA) fan.
The featured “Prelim” is Andre Lima vs. Kevin Borjas. Lima is one of the best fighters on the card. He’ll look to go 12-0 tonight. Bia Mesquita is also among the best fighters on the card. She’ll look to go 8-0 against Melissa Mullins.

UFC VEGAS 119 PLAY-BY-PLAY UPDATES
Prelims
Michael Aswell Jr. vs. Gaston Bolanos: That was another great fight. Aswell started and finished well in this fight, lighting Bolanos up with his one-two. But in the middle period, Bolanos had the momentum and was able to out-land and hurt Aswell with his kicking game. I scored the first round and third round for Aswell. The judges gave Bolanos that close first round and I’m totally OK with that. No robbery here, just a close fight.
Official decision: Gaston Bolanos def. Michael Aswell Jr. by unanimous decision (29-28, 29-28, 29-28)
Leon Shahbazyan vs. Levan Chokheli: Chokheli made Shahbazyan look like a guy they just pulled out of the crowd. He hurt him with the first leg kick he threw (which barely landed) and then rifled off a combo which included a brutal body shot to fold Shahbazyan and get the lightning quick TKO win.
WASTING NO TIME 😳

Official decision: Levan Chokheli def. Leon Shahbazyan by TKO (punches), round 1 (0:23)
Karol Rosa vs. Luana Santos: Total domination from Santos. Her grappling looked on point tonight and she completely overwhelmed the veteran Rosa. She racked up almost twelve and a half minutes of control time. She didn’t do much damage, at all, but it was an impressive performance nonetheless.
Official result: Luana Santos def. Karol Rosa by unanimous decision (30-27, 30-27, 30-27)
Shane Collins vs. Otari Tanzilovi: That was a fun scrap to open the card. Tanzilovi got some takedowns, but didn’t do much with them. Collins was able to hurt and tire Tanzilovi out on the feet with some creative striking and also snapped on a handful of submission attempts. Collins might be a fun addition to the Featherweight rankings.
Official decision: Shane Collins def. Otari Tanzilovi by unanimous decision (30-27, 30-27, 30-27)
