Going into the UFC Vegas 23 main event, fans had no idea what to expect between middleweight contenders Marvin Vettori and Kevin Holland.
With Holland making the walk to the octagon for the second time in three weeks, the pressure was on Vettori to not only pick up the win but secure his place in the title picture.
After 25-minutes of grueling action, Vettori walked away with the dominant decision win.
Below is how fighters reacted to the entire night of action in Las Vegas.
Kevin Holland vs. Marvin Vettori
As for marv... sorry ork.

It wasn’t the prettiest win but a wins a win and it means so much to him you can see.
That fight told me he knew he couldn’t strike with me so he was going to try take me down
Even if he were to succeed in takedowns he wouldn’t of been able to keep me
There

I would of hurt this man for five rounds on the feet
But hey who the fuck am I to talk?
I pulled out of the fight so every right I have goes out the window with that
Whatever happens for Marvin next good luck
I’m sure we’ll meet soon
I’ve got a fake injury to recover from
And repair

All very soon x
I feel like Marvin Vettori owes me money for the blueprint! #UFCVegas23

Arnold Allen edges Sodiq Yusuff

Allen looking great today. Yusuff was having success when he took some steam off his shots this RD but then gets rocked with a head kick. Allen up 2 RDs in my book. #UFCVegas23

I didn’t think much of Dern when she got whooped by Ribas. But man she has been impressing me lately.
