Rogers Arena in Vancouver turned into an absolute madhouse this weekend. The Canadian crowd showed up early for UFC Vancouver and stayed loud throughout the night. They had plenty to cheer about too. Four out of five Canadian fighters on the main card walked away with victories.
The UFC Vancouver results delivered everything fight fans could want. Spectacular knockouts, slick submissions, and controversial decisions kept everyone on their toes. From the opening bell to the final horn, this card delivered non-stop action that had fans glued to their seats.
The main event between Brendan Allen and Reinier de Ridder started exactly how most expected. de Ridder dominated the first round with his superior grappling, keeping Allen pinned to the canvas. But that’s where the predictability ended. Allen flipped the script completely in the following rounds. He started controlling the Dutchman on the ground, which nobody saw coming. By the end of round four, de Ridder’s corner had seen enough and stopped the fight.
IT'S ALL OVER! 🤯@BrendanAllenMMA wins at the end of Round 4 for the biggest victory of his career!

Mike Malott gave the Canadian fans another reason to celebrate in the co-main event. He out-hustled Kevin Holland for three rounds to earn a unanimous decision victory. The fight had some weird moments, including two accidental low blows from Malott that paused the action. Holland looked hesitant after those incidents and couldn’t find his rhythm. Malott capitalized by landing better shots in round two and securing a crucial takedown in the third. That’s three straight wins for Malott and three straight losses for Holland, who’s now in serious need of a course correction.
Clean sweep in the co-main! ✍️@Michael_Malott earns the UD victory tonight!

Aiemann Zahabi woh a hard-fought split decision over Marlon Vera. Vera knocked Zahabi down in the second round and had him backing up. But the Canadian recovered and battled back in the third. The judges gave Zahabi the first and third rounds on two scorecards. Manon Fiorot needed just 74 seconds to destroy Jasmine Jasudavicius’ winning streak. A perfectly placed left hand wobbled the Canadian, and Fiorot pounced immediately. She forced Jasudavicius to the canvas and unleashed ground strikes until the referee stopped it.
THE BEAST FROM NICE 🇫🇷@ManonFiorot_MMA goes crazy in the first round to earn the TKO!

Aoriqileng made quick work of Cody Gibson, needing only 21 seconds. When Gibson threw a low kick, Aoriqileng countered with a perfectly timed right hand. Gibson crumpled, and Aoriqileng finished him on the ground. Kyle Nelson opened the main card with a controversial unanimous decision over Matt Frevola. Nelson appeared to stop Frevola late in round one, but the fight continued. He regained his composure and controlled the remaining rounds to secure the victory.
Charles Jourdain continued his impressive bantamweight run by submitting Davey Grant in the first round. He landed a beautiful jumping knee that flattened Grant, then locked in a nasty guillotine choke. That’s two straight submission wins since dropping to 135 pounds.
CHARLES JOURDAIN IS AT IT AGAIN WITH THE GUILLOTINE 😮💨@JourdainAir sinks the submission in Round 1 to make this crowd go WILD!

Drew Dober and Kyle Prepolec put on an absolute war to close the prelims. They traded bombs for two full rounds before Dober turned up the heat in the third. Despite losing a point for an accidental low blow, Dober pressed forward aggressively. He chased down Prepolec and forced the stoppage at 1:16 of round three. This ended Dober’s three-fight losing streak and gave him his first win in over two years.
