The Polish veteran struggled to remain upright to showcase his knockout power, as Teixera took him down with ease in the opening stanza of their light heayweight tilte bout. Blachowicz didn’t panic despite being on his back for much of Round 1. However, it wasn’t long before he was grounded again in the second frame after being stunned by a Teixeira left hook. This time, the Brazilian advanced position with ease, transitioned to the back and flattened Blachowicz out for a rear-naked choke submission win.

“Everything was okay,” Blachowicz said. “The first round I think that he would take me down, but anyway I don’t feel bad in this position. I say okay, this round is for him now, the second round I’ll start working, I’ll do my job.

Nach Petr Yan behauptete die Interims-Bantamgewichts-Krone mit einem denkwürdigen triumph über Cory Sandhagen in der UFC 267 co-main event gab es einige Frage, was könnte sei der nächste für den Russen, der als “Keine Gnade" bekannt ist.”

UFC-Präsident Dana White legte diese Vorstellung zur Ruhe, in Anspielung auf das Unvollendete geschäft zwischen Yan und Sterling. Sterling behauptet, die bantamgewicht Krone, als er nicht weitermachen konnte, nachdem Yan gelandet war ein illegales Knie in der vierten Runde ihres Zusammenstoßes bei UFC 259. vergangenen März, was zu einem Disqualifikationssieg für die Serra-Longo Kampf Teammitglied.

For Glover Teixeira, winning the UFC light heavyweight title was a goal that was 20 years in the making.

After one unsuccessful championship bid in 2014, Teixeira was stuck in a contender’s purgatory for approximately four years, going 5-5 in UFC competition. At that point, it looked like Teixeira’s time to become a champion had passed, particularly after a lopsided loss to Corey Anderson at UFC Fight Night 134 in July 2018.

Teixeira has since rattled off six consecutive triumphs, culminating in Saturday’s second-round submission of Jan Blachowicz in the UFC 267 headliner at Etihad Arena in Abu Dhabi. With the win, Teixeira became the 14th light heavyweight champion in promotion history

“It feels so amazing,” Teixeira said at Saturday’s post-fight press conference. “[I’m] so happy. This is what I dreamed for 20 years. Twenty years on the road, ups and downs, I wanted to get this belt. I wanted to be a champion. There was a time there that I thought I would never…

Yan and Sandhagen earned “Fight of the Night” honors and $50,000 apiece for their co-main event bout at Etihad Arena in Abu Dhabi on Saturday. After five competitive rounds, Yan claimed the interim 135-pound belt with a unanimous decision triumph, setting up a title unification rematch with Aljamain Sterling at a future event.

Elsewhere, Glover Teixeira received a $50,000 “Performance of the Night” check for his dominant win over Jan Blachowicz in the evening’s light heavyweight championship headliner. The 42-year-old Brazilian grounded his opponent in both the first and second rounds before eventually securing a rear-naked choke submission at the 3:02 mark of Round 2 for his sixth consecutive Octagon triumph.

UFC has pulled referee Vyacheslav Kiselev from his other #UFC267 assignments due to his performance during the Zaleski dos Santos-Saint Denis fight. pic.twitter.com/lt04N8b6ax

— ESPN MMA (@espnmma) October 30, 2021

Vyacheslav Kiselev was originally scheduled to referee two bouts at UFC 267, but his negligence in his first assignment resulted in a shorter-than-expected night.

Kiselev was the third man in the cage for the preliminary welterweight bout between Elizeu Zaleski dos Santos and Benoit St. Denis. During a brutally lopsided second round, it appeared that St. Denis was out on his feet, and the UFC commentary team was in utter disbelief as Kiselev allowed the the Octagon newcomer to continue. Later, St. Denis informed Kiselev that he couldn’t see after an eye poke, but the referee restarted the bout without calling in a cageside physician to examine the Frenchman.

To his credit, St. Denis continued to fight back and ultimately made …
