PARIS – Nathaniel Wood and Charles Jourdain have a reputation as can’t miss fighters – and they lived up to the hype again at UFC Fight Night 209.
In the main card opener at Accor Arena in Paris, Wood (19-5 MMA, 6-2 UFC) defeated Jourdain (13-6-1 MMA, 4-5-1 UFC) via unanimous decision (30-27, 30-27, 29-28) in a fun back-and-forth battle.
Early, Wood found success with a takedown but was unable to muster up much significant offense in the grappling department. While Wood seemed to keep an open mind when it came to where he wanted to take the fight throughout, Jourdain was less eager to drag the fight down to the canvas.
