UFC 250 recap

Yahoo Sports' Kevin Iole breaks down UFC 250.

Video Transcript

KEVIN IOLE: Well, Amanda Nunes did it again on Saturday night at UFC 250. She made it look easy, as she usually does. She defended her UFC featherweight championship with a unanimous decision victory over Felicia Spencer, who was never in the fight. It was 50-44 twice and 50-45, and it was a one-sided beatdown from the beginning of the fight. Spencer never had any offense going. Nunes just rolled on and was dominant in the victory.

The big news on the card was the fact that Aljamain Sterling, the number two ranked men's bantamweight, submitted Cory Sandhagen in the first round. And he should put himself in position to fight for the title later this year or early next year. It was a very impressive performance by Aljamain, who got a rear naked choke after catching a kick and taking Sandhagen to the ground.

"Sugar" Sean O'Malley also was impressive with a one-punch knockout. He just walked away after hitting Eddie Wineland on the chin with a right [? hand. ?] First round, he was way faster, way more accurate. Cracked him on the chin-- that was it. It was a big night. A great night of fights here at the Apex in Las Vegas. Amanda Nunes [? is ?] your winner and still world champion. For Yahoo Sports in Las Vegas, I'm Kevin Iole.
