The UFC 287 event proved to be a testament to Rob Font’s continued dominance in the bantamweight division as he dispatched Adrian Yanez, who had been looking to make a name for himself in the sport. Font’s quick right hook in the first round proved decisive in securing him the victory.

Despite Yanez’s early momentum, establishing his slick boxing with a strong jab, Font remained undeterred, matching him in power and exchange. He eventually caught Yanez off-guard with a well-timed uppercut, causing a shift in the fight’s momentum. Smelling blood, he relentlessly launched an attack, ultimately delivering a brutal right hook that left Yanez crumpled on the mat.

It was clear that Font wanted this win, especially after having suffered two consecutive losses. “It’s been a while since I got a finish. I needed this finish. Put me back in with the top guys, I’m ready to go,” he said post-fight. And with this electrifying victory under his belt, he has certainly made a statement and re-established his position as one of the most formidable bantamweights in the sport.
