Thiago Santos earned one of the most important wins of his career on Saturday when he defeated Johnny Walker in the UFC Fight Night 193 main event. After suffering three consecutive losses and undergoing a serious double knee reconstruction surgery, Santos needed to show he was still a player in the light heavyweight division. He largely did that, outpointing Walker over the course of five rounds to take a unanimous decision by scores of 48-47, 48-47, and 48-47. The 205-pound bout headlined UFC Fight Night 193, which took place at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas. The entire event streamed on ESPN+. It was a methodical approach on both ends to start the fight.
