Here are a few things … Junior Dos Santos 1. Don’t look now, but JDS has his first actual winning streak in more than six years In the main event, Tai Tuivasa came after him with that youthful enthusiasm and total disregard for its physical consequences. Junior Dos Santos was all too happy to remind him that a left hand in your teeth hurts no matter who you are, and the next thing Tuivasa knew he was stuck in mount with the big Brazilian teeing off on him from above. The TKO win is Dos Santos’ first finish since his 2013 knockout of Mark Hunt. More importantly, it’s the first time he’s strung two wins together since he was the reigning UFC heavyweight champion.

Instead, Kunchenko had to settle for a clean sweep on the scorecards, taking a unanimous decision victory with scores of 30-26, 30-26, and 30-27. “I am very happy that I got the win, I feel really good,” Kunchenko said post-fight through an interpreter.
