This Is How The MMA World Reacted To UFC Vegas 12

UFC Vegas 12 went down on Saturday night at the UFC APEX in Las Vegas, Nevada. In the main event, Uriah Hall scored a fourth round TKO win over Anderson Silva, in what was likely the Brazilian’s last fight inside the Octagon. ‘The Spider’, who has one fight left on his UFC contract, previously speculated that this would be his last fight in the promotion, but not necessarily all together.

In the co-main event, unbeaten featherweight Bryce Mitchell extended his record to 14-0 with a unanimous decision win over Andre Fili. Elsewhere on the UFC Vegas 12 main card, Greg Hardy finished Maurice Greene in the second round of their heavyweight clash, Kevin Holland won his fourth fight of 2020 with a first round stoppage over UFC newcomer Charlie Ontiveros at middleweight, and Thiago Moises edged Bobby Green by unanimous decision in an entertaining lightweight matchup.
