Karim Zidan delves into the real winners and losers from last night’s UFC 188 fight card from Mexico City.
The UFC returned to Mexico City on Saturday night, and while the boisterous crowd in attendance hoped to finally see their champion defend his title, it was instead Brazil's Fabricio Werdum who earned his second win in front of the sellout crowd in the Mexico City Arena. This time, however, there is little to dispute about who reigns atop the heavyweight division.
While altitude proved to be a major hindrance to the exciting action displayed within the Octagon, many of the night's contests, including the main event showcase, led to some unexpected finishes and unpredicted winners.
