For the first nine fights of his MMA career, including his first two UFC matchups, the 24 year-old Tristar fighter by way of Birmingham, England, won via finish.
But crafty veteran Keita Nakamura presented him with something a little different Saturday at UFC Fight Night 84. The Tokyo native kept Breese honest for 15 minutes, but not enough to take a decision.
In a welterweight fight closer than the scores would indicate, Breese remained unbeaten via unanimous decision, getting scores of 30-27, 30-27, 29-28.
Breese landed clean shots in the first round, but did so in such a manner that it was obvious Nakamura would be able to figure out the holes in Breese's game and make a fight out of it.
