Takedowns and ground and pound were the keys to victory for Dennis Bermudez at UFC Fight Night 92 earlier tonight (Sat. Aug. 6, 2016). Bermudez (16-5) survived a late rally by Rony Jason (14-6 1NC) and won the Featherweight co-main event via unanimous decision inside Vivint Smart Home Arena in Salt Lake City, Utah.
Two judges scored the fight 30-27, with the third handing in a 30-26.
"Frankie Edgar, November 14th, Madison Square Garden, let's go!" Bermudez shouted during his post-fight interview with Jon Anik.
Bermudez, 29, dominated with takedowns throughout and did the majority of his damage in the first round after cutting Jason's forehead open with some vicious elbows.
