The former champion of the division Henry Cejudo faced the Chinese song Yadong. It was a struggle in which the balance reigned in the first two parts. However, the former champion of the roosters and flies took a flame in the eyes of the third round, tried to return but failed and so the victory went to Yadong

The struggle

Cejudo started the fight on the top, looking for more offensive in front of a rival who was putting himself studying his rival more. Soon the Chinese opened more in return and would have left the struggle somehow balanced. The great moment of the first part of the main combat of UFC Seattle was a low football from the Triple C which almost complicated the rival.

The kicks on the leg were the weapon of Cejudo to try to score the opponent, thus continuing in this second round. The American was trying to fall, facing the strong defense of the Chinese in this regard, in addition to the blows, which were already starting with a little frankness. The struggle continued controversial and with the two fighters who strive to impose their strategies.

The exchange began to become ferocious at the beginning of the third round, with the former forced champion to take more offensive initiative. The American pressure was stronger, but Yadong was not defensive and replied to Cebuer’s attacks in the same coin. The fight was more open, but during a sequence in return, the offer that caused controversy took place.

After punching the American, Yadong gave a finger in the eyes of Cejudo, who complained promptly with the referee. The struggle was interrupted while the “tripla C” recovered from the move and requested the loss of points to the arbitration. After the regulation of the five minutes for the recovery, the struggle resumed with the Chinese taking advantage of the state of the former champion to leave and try the Knockout.

At the end of the third part, the American complained of the accident again, saying that he could not see. The medical team went to verify the injury and referee Jason Herzog indicated that he would start the fourth round so that the fight went to the decision of the judges with the irritation of the two fighters and those present at the Pretge Arena climate, This protocol was followed and, with a controversial shape, Song Yadong brought the victory home.

The night of the Brazilians

Four were the representatives of Brazil at the UFC Seattle. Jean Silva faced Melsik Baghdardaryan to keep his unbeaten last one. “Lord” rapidly committed to the struggle trying to kick up and bring the fight to exchange. The Armenians also climbed and left the contested combat up to the last moments of the first round, when Santa Catarina knocked on Baghdardaryan with a cross and a direct sequence. Even with the apparently knocked rival, the referee did not interrupted the struggle and the Brazilian took the opportunity to climb and complete the Knockout.

Wanting to adapt to a good sequence at UFC, Melquizael Costa faced the veteran Andre Filo. The duel began balanced, with the two fighters who commit themselves well into kicks and “Melk” trying to bring the fight to the ground without success. “Permaloso”, in turn, was better successful in autumn, but this was also his weakness, well explored by ParĂ¡. Seeing the wires leaving the neck unprotected, clinging to the guillotine, forced the American retreat and brought home the victory;

The same cannot be said of Jean Matsumoto. And Paulista has held a good fight against veteran Rob Font, having a good first round, managing to disturb the American a lot. The duel was entirely contested and with good times of both fighters. The character, in turn, grew up in the third and last round, disturbing Jean in the exchange. In such an environment, the struggle went to the decision of the judges and Matsumoto was defeated in the divided decision

First UFC Night Fight Seattle, Raffael Cerqueira faced Modest Bukauskas to try his first victory in the organization. And Bahian started going strong, managing to swing the Lithuanian with Jab and direct. The Brazilian followed above, but as soon as he hired the fight, a powerful left crusader was sufficient for Bukouskas to climb and use good combinations to eliminate the first round.
