Though the co-main event saw the champion remain the same, the main event had a different outcome with Jiri Prochazka capturing the UFC's light-heavyweight title via fifth-round submission. In 24:28 of action, Prochazka tallied 120 significant strikes (157 total strikes) while stuffing 12 of Glover Teixeira's 17 takedown tries on the night. The end came with Teixeira in full mount. Prochazka was able to escape yet again and locked in a rear-naked choke to earn the championship. With the win, he finds himself ready to face a new herd of hungry competitors with a target squarely on his back now.--Matt BrickerRead More News
