Murphy and Tate fought a competitive fight, but the damage on their faces would suggest otherwise.

Tate dropped to 19-9 and is 1-2 overall since returning from a five-year-long retirement. Murphy also appeared to break Tate's orbital bone as "Cupcake" dealt with bad swelling and a cut under her right eye. Lauren Murphy is far from finished with the UFC women's flyweight elite.

Officially, the fight will be for the UFC's vacant 155-pound title, although the majority of the sport essentially views Oliveira (33-8) as the defending champion. Islam Makhachev has won 10-straight fights and is 11-1 overall in the UFC. Zuffa LLC.

Yair Rodriguez(14-3, 1 NC, fighting out of Chicago, Ill.) aims to secure his first shot at UFC gold with another showstopping performance. Former featherweight title challengerBrian Ortega (15-2, 1 NC, fighting out of Los Angeles, Calif.) returns to the Octagon for the first time in almost a year. The Pennsylvania-born, German-based middleweight finally got in deep on a takedown and dragged his fellow Dana White’s Contender Series grad to the deck late in the second, quickly moving to dominant positions and landing big shots. The 29-year-old moves to 7-2 in the UFC and 20-3 overall with the victory. Since returning to the UFC through a win on Dana White’s Contender Series two summers ago, “The Hanyak” has now gone 6-0-1, forcing his way into the rankings in the light heavyweight division and establishing himself as a dark horse veteran to track in the 205-pound weight class. As the Hawaiian swarmed, connecting with a big right hook, Lungiambula covered up, prompting referee Dan Miragliotta to step in and wave off the festivities.

Now 8-0 in the UFC in his home state, Burgos picks up a second straight win, upping his record to 15-3 overall, while Jourdain falls to 4-4-1 in the UFC and 13-5-1 overall with the loss. In the third, Jourdain came out chasing down Burgos, unloading a storm of offence that put the ranked fighter on his heels. From there, “Danger” unleashed a storm of elbows that split the Chinese athlete open before locking in a triangle choke and putting his opponent to sleep. In the second, “The Tibetan Eagle” found his range and took it to Schnell, freezing him in place with a series of left hands and short, framed-off elbows that had referee Jacob Montalvo taking a close look. Following a close first round, Li came out a little more aggressive and active in the second, pressuring Salikhov, landing short shots when he could while looking for opportunities to uncork his right hand.

The UFC formally announced the bout shortly after Yahoo Sports first broke the news.

His best win to date is a first-round submission of Dan Hooker at UFC 267 last year. Oliveira (33-8, 1 NC) is coming off a wild first-round submission win over Justin Gaethje at UFC 274.

"We knew we were going to get in each other's ass, and I got there first," Jacoby said. "I think he got tired from beating on me, and I was able to capitalize," he said. Schnell pounced, landing several strikes and getting his man to the floor, where he landed a series of particularly brutal elbows that left his rival with a ghastly cut. But it wasn't enough to dissuade Jingliang, who was aggressive and active after a close first round. "I thought I had the first two rounds, but that body triangle killed my legs. He then immediately went to the ground in pain. B/R's combat sports team was in place as well to digest the daytime drama and put together a list of its winners and losers. And I know we would have." Ortega was unable to continue after suffering an apparent right shoulder injury during a non-submission tie-up on the mat. But it's part of the game." Clearly defeating the No. 2 fighter in the weight class would have elevated him into a title fight opportunity. "I think it was a very tight fight, and I already told him we can run it back any time," Rodriguez said.

One moment, Brian Ortega was bringing the fight into his world. The next moment, Yair Rodriguez was celebrating.

Both men expressed interest in a rematch after the unusual finish. The injury interrupted what had been a fast start on the feet followed by several minutes of more labored clinch work. “And I think in the moment he was trying to get the arm out from there, I saw him doing a face and was like, OK, something happened.”
