Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) returned to network television last weekend with the UFC on FOX 26: "Lawler vs. Dos Anjos" mixed martial arts (MMA) extravaganza, which took place last Sat. night (Dec. 16, 2017) inside Bell MTS Place in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada.
UFC on FOX 26 was headlined by former welterweight champion Robbie Lawler, who got eliminated from the division title hunt at the hands of ex-lightweight kingpin Rafael dos Anjos. Elsewhere on the card, grizzled veteran Ricardo Lamas got crushed by venerable featherweight bruiser Josh Bennett.
It was a meaningful night of fights.
