UFC 285: Jones vs. Gane (2023 TV Special)
6/10
UFC 285.
17 March 2023
Warning: Spoilers
Nickal winning the opening fight quick and easy. Turner thwarts Gamrot's takedown attempts early and landed shots, but Gamrot has success in the 2nd and 3rd, getting the win solely through wrestling. Neal eating a lot of shots in the third fight, Rakhmonov getting the late standing submission. Grasso has a strong 1st round against the champ, Shevchenko controls her with takedowns following, until Grasso catches her off guard by instantly jumping on her back in response to a spin kick and subsequently chokes her out. Shevchenko almost held out to the bell, but she may have gone unconscious first, Grasso becoming the new title holder. It's was a uniquely successful one-time strategy by Grasso's training camp. Then the main event, in which Bones defeats Gane so quickly it's not funny. He controls the center of the octagon and gets a takedown, followed by an immediate choke submission. Jones becomes the new heavyweight champ, after a 3-year hiatus, the Goat!
