On Wednesday evening, there weren’t a plethora of finishes, however the fighters who did take the choice out of the judges’ palms made fairly the impression.

Sadly, referee Jason Herzog and the cornermen for Anthony Smith didn’t make the suitable resolution. They allowed their fighter to take a beating for two-plus rounds greater than he ought to have.

Smith misplaced through fifth-round TKO to the resurgent Glover Teixeira in the principle occasion, however the largest story is how lengthy this struggle was allowed to proceed. At one level, Smith might be heard saying his enamel had been falling out. That looks like a superb indication we must always most likely cease the struggle, particularly contemplating he had no likelihood to win.

Right here was the end:

Let’s check out each end from UFC Battle Evening 171 aka UFC Battle Evening: Anthony Smith vs. Glover Teixeira.

Chase Sherman Smashes Ike Villanueva

The present opened with a bang. Chase Sherman made his return to the UFC with a second-round KO of Ike Villanueva. The latter was making his UFC debut, and it’s protected to say issues didn’t go as deliberate.

Sherman is trying to make a splash at heavyweight. He might not be capable of deal with the highest guys within the division, however he seemed a bit sharper on this struggle than he has up to now. Maybe his time with Naked Knuckle Preventing Championship has tightened his putting.

Villanueva confirmed fast palms, however general, Sherman was simply too massive. I’d nonetheless prefer to see what he can do at gentle heavyweight, which is a extra pure division for him.

Brian Kelleher Shocks Hunter Azure With Enormous Left Hook

Coming into the struggle, Brian Kelleher was the underdog towards the beforehand undefeated Hunter Azure. Nonetheless, the extra skilled Kelleher appeared to empty Azure’s power via an energetic first spherical, and that strain opened up this enormous left hook:

As you'll be able to see, the affect of the punch almost put Azure’s chin on his left shoulder. The follow-up shot appeared to place Azure out, however the probabilities he was going to recuperate with out it are slim. Nonetheless, Kelleher needed to end the struggle as a result of referee Jason Herzog hadn’t referred to as an finish to the bout.

After the win, Kelleher referred to as out Sean O’Malley. Maybe he’ll get what might be an attention-grabbing struggle.

Thiago Moises Faucets Out Michael Johnson

Michael Johnson is one heck of a striker, however his grappling, submission protection to be actual, has at all times been his largest weak point. We noticed this once more on Wednesday in his loss towards Thiago Moises:

Johnson was dominating the struggle within the first spherical. Moises had no solutions for Johnson’s stand-up recreation. Between the primary and second rounds, Moises’ nook suggested him to chase the takedown.

The Brazilian adopted the directions and shortly secured the win. Johnson wasted no time tapping out, and regardless of his wins over Tony Ferguson, Dustin Poirier, and Edson Barboza, his document is now all the way down to 20-16. That’s not the most effective look.

Drew Dober Batters Alexander Hernandez

Don’t look now, however Drew Dober goes to be ranked within the High 15 subsequent week. On Wednesday evening, he wore down Alexander Hernandez and earned the second-round TKO win. Here's a have a look at the end:

Dober is on a three-fight win streak with a KO end in every of these bouts. After the bout, he referred to as out Paul Felder who was sitting Octagon aspect doing colour commentary.

That may be an exceptional struggle which may finish with a stoppage as nicely. Here's a have a look at the entire outcomes from Wednesday’s card.
