Reginaldo Vieira: Wins Decision, New TUF: Brazil Bantamweight Champion
Vieira defeated Dileno Lopes via unanimous decision (29-28, 30-27, 30-27) in The Ultimate Fighter: Brazil bantamweight final at UFC 190 on Saturday in Rio de Janeiro.
ANALYSIS
It certainly wasn't a technical fight, but it sure was entertaining. Both fighters gave it everything they had and it was a closer fight than the two 30-27 scores would have indicated. There's a fairly high chance that this victory will be the highlight of Vieira's MMA career. He's already 32-years-old and he doesn't appear to have the technical skills to beat the better fighters in the bantamweight division.
