The UFC Vegas 51 preliminary card was a bit of a mixed bag. We got a technical decision, a majority decision, point deductions, and a trio of pretty vicious TKO’s. Closing out the prelims, Devin Clark moved up to heavyweight to knockout the incredibly strong William Knight in the third round. Clark was looking to set up his takedowns, but it ended up being his standing strikes that got him the dub. Clark returns to the win column, and perhaps has found a new home at heavyweight.
The UFC’s #12 ranked women’s bantamweight, Pannie Kianzad, won a unanimous decision over the #11 ranked, Lina Lansberg, in their rematch 10-years in the making.
