UFC 260 took place this past weekend, and it was an enthralling night of action in Las Vegas. The main event on the card saw Stipe Miocic aiming to become the first heavyweight champion to successfully defend his title on three occasions for the second time in his illustrious career.
However, there was to be a shock in the main event, as the title changed hands after a brutal display of punching power from Ngannou at the UFC Apex. You can catch up on all the action from an entertaining night of MMA below.
UFC News: Ngannou Makes History In Main Event
Ngannou was the man standing tall at the end of the heavyweight contest, as he delivered a second round KO defeat on Miocic. It was an outcome that very few people could have seen coming, as the defending champion is regarded by many as one of the best heavyweights in the history of UFC. However, the 34-year-old produced a stunning display, as he brought time before delivering emphatic shots to the champion.
The fight was over with 34 seconds remaining in the second round, as Ngannou delivered a menacing left hook that signaled the end to the contest. It was the perfect response from the Cameroonian, who managed to avenge the defeat that he suffered against Miocic back in 2018. It was a momentous night, as the victory means that there are now three African-born UFC champions in the company. Ngannou wasted little time in the aftermath, as he immediately set his sights on Jon Jones, who will be moving up to the heavyweight division later in the year.
UFC News: Sean O’Malley And Vicente Luque Pick Up Wins
The co-main event at UFC 260 saw Tyron Woodley and Vicente Luque clash in the welterweight division. It was another shock result in that contest, as Luque claimed a huge win by submission in the first round of the contest. The win means that he has now recorded 20 victories in his career, and has lost on just seven occasions.
Also on the main card at UFC 260 there was the return to the octagon of Sean O’Malley. The popular fighter bounced back from defeat last time out by winning in commanding fashion, as he beat Thomas Almeida by KO/TKO in the third round of the contest. There were also wins for Miranda Maverick and Jamie Mullarkey on the main card at the event.
