Evangelista “Cyborg” Santos got back to doing what he does best.
In his first appearance since April 27, 2014, the Chute Boxe mainstay took a three-round unanimous decision from welterweight Artenas Young in the Legacy Fighting Championship 50 headliner on Friday at the Arena Theatre in Houston. All three cageside judges scored it for Santos (20-16): 29-28, 30-27 and 29-28.
Young (10-10) fought well in spurts and countered effectively at times, but he lacked the aggression necessary to deal with the Brazilian. Santos marched forward for much of their 15-minute scrap, chopping away with leg kicks and letting loose with wild haymakers.
