Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Lightweight scrappers Ross Pearson and Stevie Ray threw down last night (Nov. 19, 2016) at UFC Fight Night 99 inside the SSE Arena in Belfast, Northern Island.
Pearson entered this bout on the heels of two straight losses, and the Englishman needed to right the ship. He was faced with a tough up-and-comer, but that’s a pretty standard situation for the long-time Lightweight veteran. Ray was also looking to bounce back from a loss, the first of his UFC career. He came up short opposite a strong wrestler in that bout, but Ray was looking to remind fans of his striking in that match up.
