The Octagon remained in Nevada for tonight’s UFC Vegas 46 event, a ten-bout fight card headlined by Calvin Kattar vs. Giga Chikadze.

The highly anticipated men’s featherweight main event proved to be an absolutely thrilling five-round war. Calvin and Giga traded punches, elbows, knees and kicks for twenty-five straight minutes, with ‘The Boston Finisher’ clearly getting the better of the exchanges overall. After what can only be described as a ‘fight of the year’ candidate, Kattar was awarded a much deserved win.

In the co-main event of UFC Vegas 46, heavyweight fighters Jake Collier and Chase Sherman squared off in hopes of moving up the divisional rankings. The bout proved to be a short-lived affair. Collier was able to knock down Sherman early with punches and promptly took full mount position. From there, the former middleweight would unload punches until ‘The Vanilla Gorilla’ gave up his back and then he quickly secured a fight-ending rear-naked choke.

Following the conclusion of today’s event, UFC officials announced at the post-fight press conference that four fighters would be taking home performance bonuses.
