Jared Cannonier avoided his first three-fight losing skid on Saturday when he scored a critical rebound win over Gregory Rodrigues at UFC Fight Night 251.
Cannonier (18-8 MMA, 11-8 UFC) showed that he still has life in an increasingly crowed middleweight division when the former title challenger turned back surging contender Rodrigues (16-6 MMA, 7-3 UFC) by fourth-round TKO in their headlining bout at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas.

10-9 Rodrigues. Serious chin on Cannonier. Hard to see this pace being sustainable. #UFCVegas102

19-19. Cannonier bounced back. He needs to incorporate the wrestling and put his weight on RoboCop to tire him out! #UFCVegas102

That’s my favorite elbow set up. Clinch the head, C cup the bicep with the free hand and then let it fly. #UFCVegas102

Wow, Canonier steals round 3 with that short elbow and GnP and now seals the deal in round 4 with a TKO stoppage. RoboCop struggles again with efficiency/pacing himself.
