Max Holloway took UFC’s milestone three hundredth card and made it a basic not for that quantity, however for his split-second determination to name Justin Gaethje to the middle of the mat within the remaining moments of their battle, then knocking him flat on his face with two seconds left.

Zhang Weili adopted that up by choking Yan Xiaonan to the purpose the place she needed to be revived in her nook after Spherical 1 to maintain combating, making it exceptional that their bout made it to a choice.
