UFC Vegas 66: Jared Cannonier vs Sean Strickland live results.
It’s that time of year again, last UFC card a month before dark. UFC Vegas 66 features a middleweight bout between Jared Cannonier and Shawn Strickland, both of whom lose to the last two middleweight champions. Kanoner dropped his last fight to then-Champion Israel Adesanya at UFC 276 in the summer, and Strickland lost to current champ Alex Pereira on the same card. Both are looking to get back into the title picture by defeating the other. The two were supposed to face off months ago but a finger injury forced the match to be postponed.
The co-main event features promising lightweights Arman Tsarukyan and Damir Ismagulov. Tsarukyan has five wins in his last six fights and hasn’t lost Ismagulov since 2015. Rounding out the main card is the Fight of the Night rival between Drew Dober and Bobby Green, who is returning from a six-month suspension.
The featured bout in the preliminary competition is the women’s strawweight match between Cheyanne Vlismas, who is on a winning streak, and Corey McKenna who is 2-1 in her young UFC career.
