Jordan Mein — who retired from mixed martial arts (MMA) at just 25-years-old back in 2015 — returned to action at UFC 206 tonight (Sat., Dec. 10, 2016), kicking off the pay-per-view (PPV) event inside Air Canada Centre in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, against Octagon newcomer Emil Meek.
After an explosive and competitive first round, Mein faded down the stretch and ultimately had no answer for the pressure and pace of Meek, who earned a unanimous decision after 15 minutes of action.
Meek — who earned a UFC opportunity with a violent knockout over Rousimar Palhares earlier this year — came out of his corner the aggressor, looking to land low kicks and push the pace.
