UFC Vegas 17 results and bonuses: The final UFC event of the year might have lost one big fight in Leon Edwards vs Khamzat Chimaev.
However, Stephen Thompson and Geoff Neal stepped up to take up the main event. Former UFC champions Jose Aldo and Anthony Pettis were also part of the card as they tried to take down younger and hungrier opponents.
This UFC event had a few fights fall out a few days before the show due to Covid-19, but that didn’t stop it from having some incredible fights and finishes.
The UFC will now be on a three-week break after having an event every week for the past 26 weeks or so. This was done to deal with the Covid-19 restrictions that had affected some of the UFC cards at the start of the year.
