Chris Taylor - February 27, 2016

The UFC Fight Night 84 prelims concluded with an intriguing featherweight bout between Makwan Amirkhani (13-2 MMA) and Mike Wilkinson (9-2 MMA). Amirkhani with a quick takedown to start the fight and he quickly moves to side control. Good hammer fists from the top by Amirkhani. Makwan is very controlling in the top position. Wilkinson looks for a key-lock submission but bails on it after Amirkhani lands a few more solid shots. Wilkinson tries to scramble but Makwan keeps him at bay. Round one comes to an end after some decent ground strikes from Makwan.
