"The MMA Lab product rebounded from a loss to Umar Nurmagomedov this past October, as he submitted Oliveira (23-4, 4-1 UFC) with a rear-naked choke in the UFC Vegas 113 headliner at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas on Saturday night. Bautista (17-3, 11-3 UFC) elicited a tap from his Brazilian foe at the 4:46 mark of Round 2, ending Oliverira's six-fight professional winning streak in the process."
"The finishing sequence was a thing of beauty. Bautista swept into top position following an Oliveira takedown attempt and quickly trapped his foe in a crucifix, where he dropped a series of elbows on his flailing adversary. From there, Bautista briefly threatened with a kimura before transitioning to a rear-naked choke. The fight-ending maneuver was secured so quickly that it was only a matter of seconds before "Lok Dog" called it quits."
"More than 10 years after he first challenged for UFC flyweight gold, Kyoji Horiguchi appears to be creeping closer to another title shot. Horiguchi (36-5, 1 NC, 9-1 UFC) outmaneuvered and outstruck Amir Albazi for the better part of 15 minutes in the UFC Vegas 113 co-main event, capturing an impressive unanimous decision triumph against a Top 10 opponent. The 35-year-old "Karate Kid" received scorecards of 30-27, 30-27 and 29-28 from the cageside judges,"
Mario Bautista rebounded from a loss to Umar Nurmagomedov by submitting Vinicius Oliveira with a rear-naked choke at 4:46 of Round 2 in the UFC Vegas 113 headliner. Bautista swept into top position after an Oliveira takedown attempt, trapped Oliveira in a crucifix, landed elbows, briefly threatened a kimura and quickly transitioned to a fight-ending rear-naked choke. Oliveira entered on a six-fight winning streak and appeared winded and content to remain on the canvas in the second round. Kyoji Horiguchi outmaneuvered and outstruck Amir Albazi, earning a unanimous decision (30-27, 30-27, 29-28) and improving his post-return UFC mark.
