Henry Cejudo became a champ-champ, Valentina Shevchenko nearly decapitated Jessica Eye, and Tony Ferguson and Donald Cerrone put on a war for 10 minutes.
That, in a nutshell was what went down Saturday night at UFC 238.
Cejudo, the reigning flyweight champion, earned the vacant bantamweight belt with a third round TKO victory over Marlon Moraes in the main event.
Shevchenko defended her female flyweight title when she delivered a head-kick knockout over Eye in the co-main event.
Meanwhile, Ferguson was declared the winner over Cerrone via TKO after “Cowboy” broke his nose and had his right eye swell shot.
