Cody Gibson started strong at UFC Fight Night 254, but his pace couldn’t sustain and he eventually succumbed to Da'Mon Blackshear.
Blackshear (16-7-1 MMA, 4-3-1 UFC) put on another solid octagon performance Saturday at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas when he survived an early striking storm from Gibson (21-11 MMA, 3-6 UFC) in the bantamweight bout before getting the fight to the mat and getting the tap with a kimura submission at the 4:09 mark of Round 2.
