UFC Vegas 10 went down this weekend at the UFC APEX in Las Vegas, Nevada. In the main event, Michelle Waterson and Angela Hill put on a show, with 25 minutes of non-stop action. After five rounds, it was ‘The Karate Hottie’ who had her hand raised, after earning a razor close split decision.
In the UFC Vegas 10 co-main event, Ottman Azaitar extended his unbeated record in MMA to 13-0 with a quick-fire 93 second finish against Khama Worthy, who was on a seven fight win streak.
Elsewhere on the main event, Roxanne Modafferi and Bobby Green for earned unanimous decision wins, Billy Quarantillo knocked out Kyle Nelson seven seconds into the final round, and Ed Herman scored a controversial win over Mike Rodriguez, after the referee mistakingly calling a legal blow to the body a low blow in the second round. During the post fight press conference, UFC president Dana White said that he would still pay ‘Slow’ his win bonus.
