UFC 178: Cat Zingano vs. Amanda Nunes Full Fight Video Highlights

On Saturday, Sept. 27, the UFC hosted UFC 178: Johnson vs. Cariaso from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.

In the main event of the evening, flyweight champion Demetrious Johnson defended his 125-pound title against challenger Chris Cariaso. Johnson entered the contest riding a six-fight winning streak, including four straight title defenses. The 28-year-old was last in action at UFC 174 in June, topping Ali Bagautinov by decision. Cariaso, meanwhile, carried a three-fight streak of his own. The 33-year-old striking stalwart had gone 7-3 inside the Octagon leading up to the title affair.

The co-main event featured the long-awaited UFC debut of former Bellator lightweight champion Eddie Alvarez, who took on the red-hot Donald Cerrone. Alvarez recently gained his release from Bellator MMA after reclaiming the promotion’s 155-pound title last fall. Cerrone had scored four straight finishes leading into the bout.
