UFC Vegas 59 wasn’t the deepest card on paper, but it sure brought the action. All ten fights ended before the final bell, and some of the results were surprising. In the headliner Jamahal Hill picked up the biggest win of his career over former 205-pound title challenger Thiago Santos, and the official UFC rankings panel rewarded him for his efforts. The same went for the co-main winner, Geoff Neal, who because the first man to finish Vicente Luque with strikes in Luque’s 31-fight career to date.
