#2 Welterweight: Vicente Luque vs Bryan Barberena Results

UFC 229: Luque v Turner
UFC 229: Luque v Turner

Round 1 Results: The second fight was an insane contest between two fighters with an enormous amount of respect for each other. Luque landed a couple of big lefts on Barberena, but was left in a lurch when he was thrown down to the ground by his opponent. Luque took his back on the ground, but Barberena got out on his own power. He landed a number of bad elbows on Luque!

Round 2 Results: Barberena started off the round showing his ability -- walking through his opponent's offence as if it was nothing to him. Barberena landed a few big shots on Luque himself, as the two brawled. A head kick from Luque and two shots and a knee at the end actually hurt Barberena badly for the first time.

Round 3 Results: In the third round, the two traded blows with Luque looking for a finish so that no doubt was left about the fight. Luque hit Barberena with a big right followed by a bigger knee, and that was all. With only 6 seconds left in the fight, Luque knocked out his opponent and won his UFC fight.

Final Result: Vicente Luque defeated Bryan Barberena via TKO (Round 3, 4 minutes and 54 seconds).
