Main Card

Main Event: Nick Rodriguez vs Victor Hugo | Heavyweight

In a tight contest, Hugo and Rodriguez both had their moments, but Hugo largely dictated the action with his guard play and found more dominant positions, including a deep armbar attempt. Nicky Rod passed Hugo's guard to side control and appeared to be gaining momentum late, but ultimately, Hugo's submission attempts and his late near-back take and mount sequence were enough to swing the judge's favor.
