UFC 247 won’t soon be forgotten.
The card, which went down in Houston, Texas on Saturday night, had a bit of everything: Wild finishes, back-and-forth wars and a hefty dose of shady judging to ensure fans will be arguing on social media for weeks to come.
In the main event, we saw UFC light heavyweight champ Jon Jones defend his title with a controversial decision over the formerly undefeated Dominick Reyes. In the evening’s co-headliner, flyweight champion Valentina Shevchenko authored yet another decisive performance at the expense of Katlyn Chookagian.
Elsewhere on the card, we saw big wins from prospects, contenders and veterans alike and career-altering losses for a few fighters who really needed the opposite.
