UFC 192: Joseph Benavidez vs. Ali Bagautinov video highlights

Joseph Benavidez outworked Ali Bagautinov to take a unanimous decision at UFC 192, but the win likely didn’t bring him any closer to yet another shot at flyweight king Demetrious Johnson.

The flyweight bout was part of the preliminary card of today’s UFC 192 event at Toyota Center in Houston. It aired on FOX Sports 1 following additional prelims on UFC Fight Pass and ahead of a main card on pay-per-view.

Benavidez (23-4 MMA, 10-2 UFC) bounced and picked apart the aggressive Bagautinov (13-4 MMA, 3-2 UFC) for three rounds, having to put in solid work throughout to earn scores of 30-27, 30-27 and 29-28. Benavidez did eat an uppercut and suffer a nasty cut over his eye early in the bout, but was able to minimize damage going forward as he pulled ahead on technique.
