LAS VEGAS—In a matchup featuring two of the UFC's top lightweight prospects, Mateusz Gamrot earned an incredibly hard-fought decision in a 25-minute battle with Arman Tsarukyan.
The contest served as the headlining matchup of Saturday's UFC on ESPN 38, which took place at the UFC Apex.
High-level grappling exchanges were on display from the start, with each looking for takedowns but finding capable defense from the other. Tsarukyan would get the first takedown of the contest, catching a low kick and tripping the action to the floor, but Gamrot immediately answered with creative rolls and escapes to move back to the feet and reset.
