If you tuned into ESPN last night to watch UFC on ESPN 4, well, sorry bro. Your Saturday night sucked. The first nine fights all went to decision! This is why DVR was invented!
I’ll get into the main event and the Greg Hardy fight in other posts, so this one will just tell you what you need to know about the outcomes of the other fights.
After having a fight canceled because Conor McGregor got glass in his eye from the infamous bus incident, plus having his young son go through a ton of medical problems, Ray Borg got back on the winning track.

That was probably the most feel-good moment of the night, because Borg seem like a nice dude.

Among her contemporaries, Roxanne Modafferi is one of the few still competing at the highest level. Too bad she just got out-worked and out-struck in her rematch against Jennifer Maia.
Ooooof!
