The newly crowned UFC champion in the welterweight division, Jack Della Maddalena, assessed the fight with Belal Muhammad.
Today, May 11, in the main event of UFC 315 in Montreal, Canada, the Australian defeated the American by unanimous decision.
“I saw the fight like that; I feel great. He applied pressure, I knew I had to fight smart in the standings, I should have been clearer in my striking, but it is what it is. When you fight a pressuring wrestler like Belal, you need to fight smart. When I saw that there were 30 seconds left, I understood that I was winning the fight, but I decided to go forward for the finish. Australia, now we have three champions!” — said Maddalena.
