UFC Vegas 66: Cannonier vs. Strickland - Winners and Losers

The final UFC fight card of 2022 took place on Saturday night at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas. In the headlining bout of that event, UFC Vegas 66, Jared Cannonier bounced back from his July loss to then-UFC middleweight champion Israel Adesanya. Cannonier scored a split-decision win over Sean Strickland in that contest. With the setback, Strickland is on the first losing skid of his professional career. Strickland entered UFC Vegas 66 coming off a July knockout loss to Alex Pereira.

In the UFC Vegas 66 co-main event, Arman Tsarukyan showed that he deserves a fight against an elite lightweight.
