Late in the third, after the two traded on the feet, Allen caught a kick and turned it into a high amplitude takedown, working his way to mount and then Muniz’ back. The Louisiana native stayed patient and kept looking for the choke, eventually lacing up the finish and securing the tap.

This was a breakout effort for Allen, who pushed his winning streak to four and his record inside the Octagon to 9-2 overall. Still just 27 years old, Allen continues making strides in his game, and should find himself standing opposite another ranked opponent next time out. | Official Scorecards 

Co-Main Event: Augusto Sakai defeats Don’Tale Mayes by unanimous decision (30-27, 30-27, 30-27)

Experience was the differentiating factor in the heavyweight clash between Augusto Sakai and Don’Tale Mayes, as the Brazilian veteran fought a smart, tactical fight to earn a unanimous decision win.

In the first, Sakai battered Mayes with knees to the head along the fence before wearing on the American on the ground and in the clinch. The output decreased with each round, but Sakai continued to get the better of the exchanges and control the terms of engagement, frustrating Mayes and doing what he needed to get his hand raised.

Competing at flyweight, the former Ultimate Fighter winner used her superior grappling skills to dominate De La Rosa, controlling things throughout the first before jumping on a guillotine choke in the center of the Octagon midway through the second. Despite being up a division, Suarez was undeterred, forcing De La Rosa to tap after adjusting her squeeze.

This was an outstanding performance from Suarez, who moves to 10-0 with the victory and shows she’s right back in the thick of the championship chase, regardless of where she intends to compete going forward. | Official Scorecards

The unbeaten Contender Series graduate got after Erick Gonzalez in Saturday’s final preliminary card fight, earning the stoppage with one second remaining in the first round. He may not have the cleanest technique, but Peek is an absolute berserker who only has one gear and one direction, and combined with gnarly power, it makes him a dangerous man inside the Octagon.

The powerful Brazilian flashed explosive striking in the rare moments the two were upright, but Jasudavicius took everything coming her way well, countered at times, and worked to get Fernandes to the ground in each round. Once there, the debuting fighter had no answers, allowing the Canadian to work to dominant positions and batter her with elbows and punches while draining the clock and controlling the action.

This was a strong bounce-back effort for Jasudavicius, who lost to talented Brazilian debutant Natalia Silva last time out. The Niagara native moves to 2-1 in the UFC and 8-2 overall with the win, while Fernandes falls to 8-2 and sees her seven-fight winning streak snapped in the process. | Official Scorecards

Osbourne came out sharp to start, throwing quick kicks and leaving Johnson guessing before the former LFA champ started to find his range and rhythm late in the round. An accidental low blow early in the second brought a nearly five-minute pause to the action, but when they resumed, it was more of the same, with Johnson opening a cut on Osbourne that likely earned him the round.

They continued going tit-for-tat over the final five minutes as well, leaving it up to the judges to decide. When the totals were tallied, Osbourne came out ahead, collecting the split decision victory and his fourth UFC win. | Official Scorecards

Nurullo Aliev defeats Rafael Alves by majority decision (29-27, 29-27, 28-28)

Nurullo Aliev made sure that the point he lost in the opening round didn’t cost him in his promotional debut, grinding out a unanimous decision win over Brazilian veteran Rafael Alves in the opening bout of the evening.

The newcomer from Tajikistan was docked a point in the first when Alves complained that Aliev bit him, showing referee Mark Smith clear enough evidence that the veteran official took a point. He came out in the second, remained calm while stuck in a guillotine choke, and rode out the round in top position, hitting Alves with good shots throughout the frame. In the third, the youngster again had to navigate a guillotine choke attempt and deal with Alves in mount, but he got himself to top position and closed out the round landing shots and controlling the Brazilian on the canvas.
