Matches to Make After UFC Fight Night 145

Perhaps a fight with Thiago Santos should come with a warning label attached.

“Marreta” stepped up his climb on the Ultimate Fighting Championship’s light heavyweight ladder, as he took care of former KSW champion Jan Blachowicz with punches in the third round of their UFC Fight Night 145 headliner on Saturday at the O2 Arena in Prague. Santos made the Pole his latest victim 39 seconds into Round 3, recording his fourth straight win and third consecutive finish.

Blachowicz performed well for two-plus rounds but decided to press his luck in the third and paid a steep price.
