Demetrious Johnson exited 'The Mile High City' with his ONE flyweight world title in tow after a five-round methodical beatdown of Adriano Moraes.

After trading two killer knees in their first two encounters, 'Mighty Mouse' and Mikinho settled for a phone booth match in their third and final meeting.

Despite the challenger’s significant size advantage, Johnson completely outclassed his opponent in all facets and further strengthened his claim as the greatest ever to do it.

In the co-main event, fan favorite and reigning ONE flyweight Muay Thai world champion Rodtang Jitmuangnon did not mess around and took Edgar Tabares in less than two rounds.

The entire arena went bonkers after ‘The Iron Man’ ate the challenger’s spinning elbow attempt and landed that fight-ending elbow strike of his own.

In the first of three world title bouts, Mikey Musumeci kept his place as the flyweight submission grappling kingpin by submitting Osamah Almarwai with a beautiful rear naked choke.

‘Darth Musumeci’ performed almost every leg lock imaginable on ‘Osa’, who was left with no choice but to defend the entire bout.

The Evolve MMA superstar’s aggressiveness paid off in the end, as his brilliant transitions and pristine technique led to the highlight-reel-worthy finish.

Just like her compatriot Rodtang, Stamp Fairtex was also beloved by North American fans in the building as she went up against USA’s own Alyse Anderson.

It was pandemonium in the arena after the former two-sport ONE world champion unleashed a brutal liver kick from hell in round 2 to end ‘Lil Savage’s night.

Elsewhere, Zebaztian Kadestam derailed the Roberto Solid hype train with a frightening come-from-behind KO victory in round two of their welterweight bout.

After nearly getting finished in the first round on several occasions, ‘The Bandit’ violently dropped ‘Robocop’ thrice in the second canto, much to the delight of the action-hungry crowd.
