English featherweight contender, Lerone Murphy has racked up sixteenth professional victory tonight in the main event of UFC Vegas 105 — recording a high-profile judging win over former interim title challenger, Josh Emmett in the pair’s headlining clash.
Murphy, a native of Manchester, had turned in a slew of notable victories in recent years, including wins over Edson Barboza, Dan Ige, and Joshua Culibao of note ahead of tonight’s pairing with Emmett.
As for the Team Alpha MMA staple, the former interim championship chaser had been sidelined since he starched Bryce Mitchell with a hellacious first round knockout win at UFC 296 back in 2023.
