Movsar Evloev showed why he’s a future featherweight title contender with a smothering unanimous decision victory over Dan Ige at UFC Vegas 56 tonight.
Evloev showed that he’s not only one of the most dominant grapplers in the division, but also a threat on the feet. The Russian gained the upper hand in round one, landing a flying knee and heavy strikes, before slamming Ige to the canvas. Round two saw both fighters land some big strikes before Evloev got the takedown and proceeded to land a few nasty strikes from on top.
In round three, Evloev took Ige’s back early and stuck to him like glue for the rest of the fight to round out a one-sided decision win. In his post-fight interview, the 28-year-old called out the featherweight division’s other rising star, Brendan Allen.
The victory extends Evloev’s unbeaten record to 16 wins, six of which have come in the UFC. After besting #10 ranked featherweight Ige, we can expect the #13-ranked Evloev to enter the division’s top ten in the coming days.
You can catch all the highlights of the co-main event below.
Movsar Evloev is now unbeaten in 16 pro MMA fights.
Now, let’s see how MMA Twitter reacted to Evloev’s victory over Ige at UFC Vegas 56.
I will be the champion Inshallah ??— Movsar Evloev (@MovsarUFC) June 4, 2022
We gotta be talking upwards surely ??????— Arnold billy allen (@Arnoldbfa) June 4, 2022
Movsar and Ige both suck. I hope to see something special that could motivate me to fight the winner. #UFCVegas56— Ilia Topuria (@Topuriailia) June 4, 2022
Hats off to Evloev.— Aljamain Sterling (@funkmasterMMA) June 4, 2022
Would absolutely love to see Movsar Evloev against Bryce Mitchell. #UFCVegas56— Marc Raimondi (@marcraimondi) June 4, 2022
Do Allen vs. Evloev in Paris. Allen won't be ready in time to fight in London. #UFCVegas56— Marcel Dorff ???? (@BigMarcel24) June 4, 2022
Arnold Allen is a great call out from Evloev.There aren't a lot of options for Allen right now, he seems like the odd man out in the division.But quite honestly, that's a very high risk, low reward proposition for Allen.— Aaron Bronsteter (@aaronbronsteter) June 4, 2022

Between Movsar Evloev, Ilia Topuria, Bryce Mitchell, and Arnold Allen, 145lbs is low-key stacked with incredible under-30s talent coming up the ladder. The future at featherweight is obscenely bright. #ufcvegas56— Shaheen Al-Shatti (@shaunalshatti) June 4, 2022
Evloev proposes a fight with Arnold Allen in Allen’s home country of England. “I’ll just finish him — promise.” #UFCVegas56— Marc Raimondi (@marcraimondi) June 4, 2022
Evloev x Bryce Mitchell … i would like to see this.— E. Casey Leydon (@ekc) June 4, 2022
I think Evloev will hit his ceiling soon; his wrestling is relentless (for two rounds); top game is good and striking is pretty good too, but he just doesn't excel in either facetIf he developed a better top game/finishing ability, I'd maybe favor him to climb the ranks higher— ?????

I knew Movsar Evloev was good but I didn’t realize he was THIS GOOD. He’ll be a top 5 Featherweight very soon.— The MMA Dude™ (@philthemmadude) June 4, 2022
Evloev is getting so fucking good— caposa (@Grabaka_Hitman) June 4, 2022
