UFC Vegas 46 featuring the main event fight between Calvin Kattar and Giga Chikadze ended in a unanimous decision win for the American who dominated the majority of the bout and didn’t let Chikadze stick to his game plan.

Kattar had sat out for an entire year before he stepped into the octagon to face one of the division’s most dangerous strikers, however, ‘The Boston Finisher’ was more than equipped and ready to take on the No. 8 ranked featherweight fighter and was relentless in his attacks as it could be seen in the gassed out Chikadze who had no answers to Kattar.

Chikadze did come out firing on all cylinders as he ate at Kattar with his kicks and punches, but there was a moment of bad luck for the Georgian when he slipped on the mat while trying to land a kick on Kattar who then took advantage of it by taking Chikadze to the ground and then grappled him for the rest of the first round. The slip seemed to have cost the match for Chikadze who was on a seven-fight win streak and was hoping this would lead to title contention.
