UFC Fight Night 279 took place on Saturday night at The Apex. The bonuses included a unique submission.
The “Scottish Twister” was pulled off by Murtazali Magomedov on Melsik Baghdasaryan in this featherweight matchup. It was only fourth time the twister put on in UFC history. This version was made famous by Scottish PFL veteran Stevie Ray. Magomedov earned $100K for the finish.
Manel Kape ended the great flyweight run by Kyoji Horiguchi as he finished him in the third round after Horiguchi seemingly won the first two. Kape’s performance likely gets him the next title shot at flyweight. He also earned $100K.
The Fight of the Night went to Vinicius Oliveira and Andre Fili. Each earned $100K. The fight ended with a TKO by Oliveira over Fili.
