UFC 311 Main Card Results

The lightweight champ put on a masterclass against short-notice replacement Renato Moicano, securing a dominant first-round submission victory through his signature submission skills (D’Arce Choke).

Even with Moicano stepping in for the injured Arman Tsarukyan, Makhachev proved that the lightweight throne isn’t up for grabs anytime soon. He has now broken the record for the most title defenses in lightweight division.

The co-main event gave fans an absolute war between bantamweight champ Merab Dvalishvili and the previously undefeated Umar Nurmagomedov. These guys pushed a pace that would make marathon runners jealous.

While Nurmagomedov started strong with his diverse striking, Dvalishvili’s infamous cardio eventually took over. The Georgian ‘Machine’ kept coming forward like a terminator, especially in those championship rounds. Finally, Dvalishvili’s relentless pressure earned him a well-deserved unanimous decision.

The main card was stacked with action from top to bottom. Former light heavyweight champ Jiri Prochazka got a TKO win over Jamahal Hill in a wild third-round finish. He knocked him down two times before. These two threw bombs at each other for nearly 15 minutes, with Hill even hurting Prochazka to the body in the second round. But the Czech samurai found his mark in the third, dropping Hill and unleashing a barrage that forced the ref to step in.
