Saturday night, the UFC made its return to Buffalo for the first time since 1995.

UFC 210 took place at the KeyBank Center in downtown Buffalo. The event drew a crowd of 17,110 and a gate of $2 million, the largest in the history of the KeyBank Center, according to UFC president Dana White.

The sellout crowd brought an electricity into the building and came alive in the third fight of the night when former UB wrestler Desmond Green made his UFC debut.
