Lerone Murphy Suffers His First Loss
Lerone Murphy suffered a majority decision loss to Movsar Evloev in the main event of UFC London on Saturday. The fight was extremely close, and interestingly enough, the first half of his fight played out on the feet; however, in the third round, Evloev started wrestling, scoring a takedown and closing strong with a late flurry to edge the round. Evloev was also deducted a point in the fourth round for a second illegal groin kick, but even after that, the judges felt that Evloev did enough to win the fight. The final scorecards read 48-46, 48-46 and 47-47 in favor of Evloev, including a fourth-round point deduction. In 25 minutes, Murphy landed 89 significant strikes. The defeat ends Murphy's 18-fight unbeaten streak.
