Even though he just beat the most high-profile opponent of his career, Dominick Reyes isn’t exactly crowing about it.
At UFC London, the fast-rising light heavyweight contender went to a decision for a second straight time after winning eight of his first nine pro bouts by first-round knockout or submission. Still undefeated at 11-0, Reyes learned a lot from going three rounds with Volkan Oezdemir, a recent UFC title challenger.
Though Reyes wasn’t able to put an exclamation point on the unanimous decision victory, he told host Luke Thomas on a recent episode of The MMA Hour that the fight was a valuable one in terms of development.
