Milwaukee’s own Zak Ottow made the most of his late-notice assignment against welterweight newcomer Dwight Grant, as he scored a split decision victory in UFC Fight Night action at Fiserv Forum.
Grant’s bursts of pressure worked well for him in the opening round of the fight, but they were sporadic, allowing Ottow to stay in the fight and get more comfortable. It was the same story in the middle five minutes, with Grant landing the most significant shots of the round, but Ottow still managing to stick around and keep his opponent from running away with the bout.
