UFC: St. Louis Results: Stephens Flattens Choi And Paige VanZant Breaks Her Arm In A Gutsy Loss

The UFC’s 2018 has already started with a limp in its step, losing Vitor Belfort’s retirement fight against Uriah Hall after the dangerous, and usually weight-cut drama-free, Hall was unable to weigh-in before their fight. The card also lost Zak Cummings vs. Thiago Alves just two days before the event. It showed.

UFC: St. Louis wasn’t a great card by any means, but it was fun enough and the main and co-main events delivered plenty of drama and hard hits. St. Louis also hosted Matt Hughes, who made his first appearance since his car was struck by a train last June.

Here are the full results.

Main Card

-Jeremy Stephens def. Doo Ho Choi via TKO (round 2). It was the heavy-hitting war we all expected, and Choi went down hard in the second round, elevating Stephens well into the featherweight top ten.

-Jessica-Rose Clark def. Paige VanZant via unanimous decision.

It turns out PVZ broke her arm in the first round, but still battled back. Read about Clark coming back from a dramatic robbery and murder of her cat this week to win big.

-Kamaru Usman def. Emil Weber Meek via unanimous decision
-Darren Elkins def. Michael Johnson via rear-naked choke submission (round 2).

Johnson was piecing up Elkins for the better part of the fight, bloodying the underdog until a takedown led to a slick rear-naked choke for another dramatic win for Elkins.
