A welterweight bout featuring Santiago Ponzinibbio taking on Li Jingliang took place on the main card of today’s UFC Fight Island 7 event.
Ponzinibbio (27-3 MMA) was returning to action for the first time since November of 2018, where he had scored a sensational knockout victory over Neil Magny. The Argentinian standout is currently riding a seven-fight win streak, which includes victories over Mike Perry, Gunnar Nelson and Court McGee.
Meanwhile, Li Jingliang (17-6 MMA) was looking to bounce back from a unanimous decision loss to Neil Magny when he took to the Octagon this evening. The Chinese standout had gone 3-1 over his past four fights, which included two victories by way of TKO.
