UFC Vegas 3 is in the books, and while it featured some really great action, the main event was not one of those fights that delivered. Many expected what actually happened - Curtis Blaydes dominating Alexander Volkov with his wrestling and taking a wide decision. The scores weren’t as wide as they maybe should have been, but it certainly didn’t mean there was much to discuss in terms of what happened in the cage.
The first three rounds were pretty pedestrian, with Blaydes taking Volkov down against the cage and frustrating him by holding him there. Volkov did hold him off a bit in round three, and particularly in round four, where he was actually able to get some striking in.
