Khabib Nurmagomedov charged out of his corner to start his bout with Edson Barboza and never stopped coming forward until the final horn sounded.
The result was a one-sided beating that Barboza (19-5 MMA, 13-5 UFC) did well to endure, with Nurmagomedov (25-0 MMA, 9-0 UFC) ultimately winning a dominant unanimous decision by scores of 30-25, 30-25, and 30-24.
The lightweight bout was the co-main event of today’s UFC 219 event at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. It aired on pay-per-view following prelims on FS1 and UFC Fight Pass.
