UFC Vegas 26 was intended to look a whole lot different from the event that went down tonight. A myriad of match-ups were cancelled and shuffled in the weeks, days and minutes leading up to this one. What we were left with was a 9-fight card headlined by Marina Rodriguez and Michelle Waterson.
And those women went the distance in their five-round main event, which was contested at flyweight (not their familiar strawweight). The fight was an entertaining affair with plenty of good striking exchanges. But Rodriguez had the edge on Waterson for most of those battles.
