HIGH STAKES LIGHTWEIGHT MATCHUP! Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) returns to UFC APEX on Sat., Sept. 23, 2023, with a high stakes 155-pound showdown as No. 6-ranked contender, Rafael Fiziev, takes on No. 7-seeded Mateusz Gamrot. In UFC Vegas 79’s co-main event, No. 12-ranked Featherweight contender, Bryce Mitchell, steps back into the Octagon against No. 13-seeded Dan Ige.
This was a wild welterweight fight from the opening bell as both men slung heavy leather trying to find the knockout. Both chins held up and it allowed Baeza to slow things down in the second round with ripping calf kicks. They seemed to bother Williams, but “Khaos the Ox Fighter” kept his cool and launched a heavy punching attack early into the third round that caught Baeza and stopped him in his tracks.

Williams, 27, is now 4-1 under the UFC banner with his lone loss coming against welterweight contender Michel Pereira. His performances to date have been quite impressive and this finish should launch Williams into a top 15 matchup his next time out.
