That was the case on Saturday for Leben against Andrew Craig, who picked his strikes carefully, landed accurately and outstruck Leben on his way to a split-decision win. The middleweight bout closed out the preliminary card of today’s UFC 162 event at MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas. It aired on FX ahead of a main card on pay-per-view. Leben tied Craig up early and started working punches to the body with Craig’s back against the cage. He then dropped to look for a single-leg takedown, but Craig stayed on his feet – and that pattern would repeat several times throughout the fight. Craig landed a knee to the body to finally get Leben to break. But Leben came back strong right away with a right hand, then went after the takedown again and got the fight to the floor momentarily.
