The heavyweight contest between Serghei Spivac (15-3 MMA, 6-3 UFC) and Augusto Sakai (15-5-1 MMA, 4-4 UFC) just went down on the main card of UFC Vegas 59.

With the champion, Francis Ngannou out from the action because of a knee injury, the heavyweight division is in a jiffy. Contenders are fighting their hearts out to get to the top before Francis comes back, and it was an excellent opportunity for both Spivac and Sakai to place themselves in the title picture.

Spivac moved to side control, but with half the round remaining, Augusto got back to his feet, he started pressing his opponent but Spivac closed in again and got him back to the ground. Just as the round ended, Sakai got back to his feet again only to eat a big hook by Spivac.
