Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Welterweight Bryan Barberena continued his winning ways at UFC 198 tonight (Sat., May 14, 2016) live on pay-per-view (PPV) from the Arena da Baixada in Curitiba, Brazil.
The man who last defeated Sage Northcutt back at UFC on FOX 18 outlasted a previously undefeated Warlley Alves. He did so on the back of relentless pressure, timely leg kicks, crisp elbows in the clinch, and an all-around toughness that allowed him to power through brutal body kicks by the Brazilian.
Barberena did just enough to get past Alves, earn a unanimous decision win, and become the first non-Brazilian to win at UFC 198.
