Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Welterweight knockout artists Kyle Noke and Omari Akhmedov brawled last night (Nov. 26, 2016) at UFC Fight Night 101 inside Rod Laver Arena in Melbourne, Australia.
At 36 years of age, Noke has seen his share of ups-and-downs inside the Octagon. Coming into this bout off a pair of consecutive losses, Noke’s back was against the wall, but he had the support of the crowd firmly behind him nevertheless. Akhmedov has yet to truly carve out a position for himself at 170 pounds. He also entered this bout after a pair of losses, and the Dagestani power puncher needed a win to guarantee further employment.
