He had submission wins and he had decision victories, but what he really wanted was a knockout. Then Zak Ottow called him out for a bout at UFC on ESPN+ 4, and Morono finally made his dream come true. After using an arm-in guillotine to force Ottow to give up full mount, he unloaded with elbows from the top , forcing the stoppage at the 3:34 mark of Round 1.

Gallery Alex Morono def. Zak Ottow at UFC Wichita: Best photos Before, during and after the UFC on ESPN+ 4 bout between Alex Morono and Zak Ottow , UFC commentator Jon Anik made sure to repeatedly hammer home the fact that Ottow had asked for the matchup not once, but twice. It was certainly a compelling storyline, especially given how the fight played out. Morono (16-5 MMA, 5-2 UFC) utterly overwhelmed Ottow (17-7 MMA, 4-4 UFC) over the course of less than four minutes of welterweight action – to the point Ottow got out via verbal submission . It was a pronounced performance from Morono, who used a violent offensive top game to put Ottow away (via Twitter ): The GREAT WHITE! @AlexMoronoMMA transitions from guillotine, to full mount to the back and finishes with some vicious GnP! #UFCWichita pic.twitter.com/jpWHI6H7qo — UFC (@ufc) March 9, 2019 Right after the finish, Morono was interview by Anik and the first question asked was about the multiple callouts by Ottow.

Why UFC on FOX 31 winner Zak Ottow had a hunch he’d be a late replacement

BAD MMA News — Tue, 18 Dec 2018 20:06:29 +0000

MILWAUKEE – Zak Ottow was a sizeable underdog coming in on short-notice against UFC newcomer Dwight Grant and his seven-fight winning streak at UFC on FOX 31. Ottow (17-6 MMA, 4-3 UFC) would only hear about that, though, after the welterweight bout, when he’d already beaten Grant (8-2 MMA, 0-1 UFC) via split decision . “I used to look at that stuff, and I don’t look at any of that stuff anymore,” Ottow told reporters, including MMAjunkie, backstage at at Fiserv Forum. “Comments, all these trolls and stuff on the internet nowadays, anybody can say whatever they want. “Hey, I’m the one that’s going out there and exposing myself for you all to see, and I’m the one that’s putting it on the line everyday and going out there, so I’m not going to worry what other people say

Zak Ottow wants to bounce back up and stay there at UFC Milwaukee

BAD MMA News — Fri, 14 Dec 2018 21:31:45 +0000

MILWAUKEE – Zak Ottow is hoping his yo-yo run in the UFC will be on the upward trajectory Saturday – and stay there, this time. In six fights in the UFC, Ottow has alternated wins and losses. In his MMA career of 22 fights, he never has lost two in a row, though. Coming off a loss to Sage Northcutt, that means Ottow (16-6 MMA, 3-3 UFC), in theory, ought to bounce back against promotional newcomer Dwight Grant (8-1 MMA, 0-0 UFC) at UFC on FOX 31. “All the way back to my amateur career, I’ve never lost two in a row,” Ottow told MMAjunkie at an open workout event in Milwaukee on Wednesday.

Decoding what Dana White really means when he says Sage Northcutt ‘needs some work’

BAD MMA News — Wed, 28 Nov 2018 00:53:12 +0000

Just when the Sage Northcutt show was starting to fulfill some of its promises, it seems the UFC has up and cancelled it. Maybe a better way to put it is, the fight promotion has opted not to renew it for another season. Not right now, anyway. And the explanation for that is very telling, if not terribly surprising. As UFC President Dana White told the hosts of the “UFC Unfiltered” podcast , the company “let (Northcutt) go” after he fought out his existing contract on a three-fight winning streak. “Sage is young, and Sage needs some work,” White said
