Augusto Sakai Unable To Pull Out Victory In Main Event
4 years agoAugusto Sakai (15-2-1) was unable to succeed in his first big test in the UFC against Alistair Overeem on Saturday night. Ranked at No. 8 prior to the bout, Sakai may slip some in the top-15 rankings, but he still has the skills to compete with anyone in the top 15. The Brazilian actually out-struck Overeem, landing 120 total strikes, with 99 of those being significant strikes. Dropping his first UFC bout, Sakai should retain fantasy value in his next matchup. The 29-year-old has knocked out 11 of his 15 opponents, which always keeps a heavyweight relevant in the fantasy world.
