Who won the UFC fight last night (16th April 2022)?

Belal Muhammad successfully avenged his loss to Vicente Luque in the main event of UFC Vegas 51 at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas, Nevada.

After five rounds of action, Muhammad bagged a convincing unanimous decision with scores of 49-46, 49-46, and 48-47. He now has seven wins and one no-contest in his last eight fights.

The Chicago native also made a solid case for challenging Kamaru Usman for the welterweight title. However, it appears that two-time 170-pound title challenger Colby Covington is at the top of his hit list. Muhammad called out "Karen" Covington for a fight during his post-fight interview.

In the co-main event, newcomer Caio Borralho notched his first UFC win in an unconventional manner. The Brazilian dominated the fight but landed a knee on a downed Gadzhi Omargadzhiev.

Referee Dan Miragliotta called the foul, leading to a point being deducted from Borralho. Nonetheless, the Contender Series alum did enough to secure a technical decision win.

Andre Fialho also earned his first UFC win during the event. He connected with a flurry of punches to put away Miguel Baeza at the 4:39 mark of round one.

In the women's bantamweight division, Mayra Bueno Silva earned a unanimous decision to return to the win column. She defeated China's Yanan Wu after three rounds.

Meanwhile, featherweight Pat Sabatini impressed with a dominant performance against T.J. Laramie. The 31-year-old used his grappling to maul his opponent en route to a lopsided unanimous decision win.

Finally, Mounir Lazzez defeated Ange Loosa in the main card opener. However, he caused controversy when he gave notorious fugitive Daniel Kinahan a shout-out during his post-fight interview.
