LAS VEGAS –
Follow along with our round-by-round updates and official results beginning at approximately 6 p.m. ET for the early prelims on ESPN+, 8 p.m. for the prelims on ESPN and 10 p.m. ET for the main card on pay-per-view. Round 3 – It’s anyone’s fight, in my estimation. Pretty clear-cut-scored rounds thus far. A lot of footwork, not a lot of volume thus far. Jabs from both guys. Jacoby misses. Oleksiejczuk connects and is poked in the eye again seconds later. Referee Mark Smith emphatically calls timeout. Another warning is issued to Jacoby, but no point deduction. The action resumes and Jacoby comes out firing. Oleksiejczuk hurls a left hand back. That was powerful, but I don’t think it connected. Both men miss.
Related Tim Elliott vs. Tagir Ulanbekov Round 1 – Things are about to get funky. As expected, Tim Elliott comes out with all sorts of weirdness. After a few exchanges and some posing, Elliott drags Ulanbekov to the canvas. Elliott lands some frantic ground-and-pound but Ulanbekov gets up. Elliott screams at him. The two fighters jab. The pace of this fight is really testing my play-by-play skills here. These guys are flying. Elliott may have heard my prayers and tries to tie up Ulanbekov.
Related Mariya Agapova vs. Maryna Moroz Round 1 – Ukraine’s Maryna Moroz gets a big pop from the Las Vegas crowd on introductions as she poses with her country’s flag. She’s facing a bitter rival and former training partner in Mariya Agapova. Let’s see how this goes. Moroz goes for a takedown early and ties Agapova against the fence. That’s been a theme tonight. She eventually dumps Agapova to the canvas. Agapova might be in trouble. Moroz is on her back seeking a rear-naked choke.
