Gilbert Burns Puts On Amazing Performance But Suffers Loss
3 years agoIn a fight of the year contender, No. 2-ranked Gilbert Burns gave rising star Khamzat Chimaev all he could handle at UFC 273 on Saturday. Though Burns took a unanimous-decision loss, Burns out-struck Chimaev by landing 119 significant strikes (141 total strikes), though he missed all five of his takedown tries. Burns showed that he can still go toe-to-toe with the division's heavy hitters, and don't be surprised to see Burns continue to collect some more big finishes before his time in the UFC is up.
