The UFC Flyweight Division has a new top candidate when Manel Kape Asu Almabayev put in a short-notice Apex Main Event.
KAGE would be confronted with Brandon Royval in the main event of UFC Vegas 103, but the game was rearranged at the beginning of February. Royval had had a concussion during the camp, so that the UFC Almabayev had called for the fight in the short term.
After a decision in a bitter resorting competition with Muhammad Mokaev last summer at UFC 304 in Manchester, Kape returned to action in December with a large Ko by Bruno Silva. In the meantime, Almabayev went on a winning run for the centuries in his four UFC trips and 13 outside the Octagon.
Manel Kape vs Asu Almabayev UFC Vegas 103 Result
Neither of them liked to hire a provisional start. When they did, Manel Kape won the stock markets when he caught ASU Almabayev in the opening fairs, although it didn't seem like both were too moved.
When the second minute arrived, Kape started to release with a combination that earned the respect of his rival. Indeed, when they threw, it seemed that the number six-ranking striker landed with more strength and accuracy.
Towards the end of the first, Almabayev needed attention from the Cutman after wearing the shots just under his left eye. Both men opened much more in the second when they were looking for the big shot, with Almabayev landing much more successfully.
Kape landed a huge knee on the body at the last moments of round two that was removed from the fight ending. With seconds to go in the round, the fight was briefly stopped for an eye chef, although the assessment officer quickly called it a legal blow, although repetitions were dubious.
The third started in about the same way as the second with heated exchanges, while KAPE pushed the pressure to the cage. Almabayev seemed to indicate a time -out after a eye shell, but it was not offered and shot for the Takedown.
Manel Kape stopped the fight with a flurry of bumps shortly thereafter.
UFC Vegas 103 had a beautiful Kos in abundance
After a stuttering start in the Prelims, UFC Vegas 103 supplied all the important moments of entertainment all night. Two fights were pulled due to weight problems at the last minute, and after four decisions early in the night, things look gloomy.

However, that all changed when the heavyweights took the cage. Ex-NFL star Austen Lane was left flat by the unbeaten Mario Pinto in a huge hard collision that set the pace for the rest of the evening.
Sam Patterson then showed an impressive knockout power to end the undefeated series of Danny Barlow in the opening fight of the main map. And in the Co-Main event, Cody Brundage Julian Marquez stopped after a brutal middle weight.
