Remains perfect in UFC
Radtke defeated Gilbert Urbina via TKO (punches) at 4:47 of Round 1 at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
Radtke was unimpressive in a unanimous decision win over Blood Diamond in Australia last September, but he rebounded with an overwhelming effort here against Urbina as a +180 underdog. Radtke kept things simple and easily crushed Gilbert in all the striking exchanges between the two. He was credited with a pair of knockdowns before referee Mark Smith had finally seen enough. There's no reason to think the 33-year-old Illinois native will continue winning given his uneven results on the regional scene, but he's emerged victorious in his first two UFC bouts.

Hangs on for debut win
Radtke defeated Blood Diamond via unanimous decision (29-27, 29-27, 29-27) at UFC 293 on Saturday in Sydney, Australia.
ANALYSIS
Flying halfway around the world for his UFC debut, Radtke got the victory he came for, but was unimpressive in the process. The fact "Chuck Buffalo" entered as a -325 favorite was due to level of opposition he was going up against. Knowing Diamond's grappling weaknesses, Radtke fired off six takedown attempts. He only landed one, but was still credited with 9:41 worth of control time due to the fact he kept Blood plastered to the cage most of the fight. The result was sealed with just a couple minutes remaining after referee Herb Dean docked Diamond a point for repeated low blows. The 33-year-old Illinois native will have to show a heck of a lot more his next time out if he hopes to make any sort of run with the UFC.

He'll do so against Blood Diamond, a loser of his only two career trips to the Octagon.
