In the co-main event of UFC London, Swedish middleweight Jack Hermansson put on a perfect perfomance when he outfought a frustrated Chris Curtis over three rounds. In the end, Hermansson stood as the winner via unanimous decision (29-28, 29-28, 30-27).
However, the Swede did not seem too happy about how the fight went.
“I’m sorry to the fans about the fight,” Hermansson said in his post-fight interview. “I was supposed to fight Darren Till, and I got Chris on short notice and I needed to secure the win. Sorry guys.”
Bit of spice after the bell!
