by The Ultimate Fighting Championship PPV event UFC 250 has concluded, and fans witnessed two devastating knockouts, making it difficult to decide which was better.
There was also an amazing display of courage and toughness by Felicia Spencer in the main event. However, the greatest female fighter of all time, Amanda Nunes, proved yet again that she is on a completely different level at the moment.
UFC 250 Main Card Winners and Losers
1. Eddie Wineland vs. Sean O’Malley (Bantamweight)
- Winner: Sean O’Malley
- Loser: Eddie Wineland
- Way of Winning: Knockout in Round 1 (1:54)
Suga Sean O’Malley knocked out Eddie Wineland in Round 1 at just 1 minute and 54 seconds with a fierce right hand. Sean now holds a record of 12-0 and, without a doubt, has all the ingredients of the next big UFC star. This was also the first straight knockout loss of Eddie Wineland’s career, which says a lot about Sean O’Malley’s credibility.
2. Neil Magny vs. Anthony Rocco Martin (Welterweight)
- Winner: Neil Magny
- Loser: Anthony Rocco Martin
- Way of Winning: Decision (30-27, 30-27, 29-28)
Although it was a very tactical fight, the strategy of Neil Magny was nearly perfect. He absolutely tired out Anthony Rocco Martin in the first two rounds, and as Anthony lost stamina, Neil went all out in the third round. The most interesting part was that commentators thought the first two rounds would be close, but in the end, it appeared that Neil won all three rounds convincingly.
3. Aljamain Sterling vs. Cory Sandhagen (Bantamweight)
- Winner: Aljamain Sterling
- Loser: Cory Sandhagen
- Way of Winning: Submission in Round 1 (1:28)
Aljamain Sterling caught Cory by surprise in the opening round, starting out very aggressively and successfully trapping him in a rear naked choke. Although Cory tried hard to escape, he eventually tapped out, then immediately went unconscious. This loss ended Cory Sandhagen’s 7-fight winning streak and marked just the second loss of his UFC career.
4. Raphael Assunção vs. Cody Garbrandt (Bantamweight – Co-Main Event)
- Winner: Cody Garbrandt
- Loser: Raphael Assunção
- Way of Winning: Knockout in Round 2 (4:59)
At the very last second of Round 2, Cody Garbrandt landed a mind-blowing knockout punch. As soon as the buzzer sounded, Raphael was seeing stars in the Octagon. The knockout was so spectacular that even after the fight, when Raphael’s corner gave him the stool, he failed to sit on it as he struggled to regain his balance from the punch.
5. Amanda Nunes (c) vs. Felicia Spencer (Featherweight – Main Event for Women’s Featherweight Championship)
- Winner: Amanda Nunes
- Loser: Felicia Spencer
- Way of Winning: Decision (50-44, 50-44, 50-45)
Huge props go to Felicia Spencer for going the distance against Amanda Nunes. Not to forget, Nunes is the same woman who defeated both Ronda Rousey and Cris Cyborg in less than a round. Nunes absolutely ragdolled Spencer in this match and had a strange grin on her face throughout the fight.
The biggest question now is, who’s next for Amanda Nunes, given that she has completely cleaned up two divisions?
