UFC Fight Night 161 Results: Veteran ends undefeated streak, Former headliner to get fired after devastating KO?

#5 Matt Frevola vs Luis Peña

Violent Bob Ross has to go back to the drawing board

In the second fight of the main card, we had yet another narrow split decision that could have gone either way. Frevola's successful takedowns seemed to be the big difference maker as he edged Frevola edged Luis Peña in a very close fight as he won the first round but lost the second decisively, only to bounce back and secure the third.

There wasn't much controversy in this but it was a solid, scrappy fight. Peña won the second round decisively but Frevola managed to edge him out in 1 and 3. AKA will continue to shape up Peña and to many, he was the more seasoned and skilled fighter. However, what may have cost him was his complete lack of urgency when needing to close the show.

Peña managed to clip Frevola towards the end of Round 1, but it wasn't enough to secure the round as the latter managed to ragdoll him a bit in the first round. It's going to be interesting to see where the two men go from here.

Result: Matt Frevola def. Luis Peña by split decision (28-29, 29-28, 29-28)
