In a rather uneventful main event, Thiago Santos eeked out a unanimous decision win at UFC Vegas 38. Against Johnny Walker, ‘Marreta’ showed a more cautious version of himself, but due to some crucial strikers, he still managed to get the nod from the judges. On Twitter, pro fighters reacted to the match.
These some big ass Brazilians, @ufc growing some big mafuckas these days. Y’all going for the hammer or the nail?
