SEATTLE – It was the fight that got the most hype on Saturday’s card, but “Fight of the Night” it was not. Still, Rory MacDonald jabbed his way past a careful Jake Ellenberger and may have punched his ticket to a welterweight title fight. The welterweight bout was the co-main event of today’s UFC on FOX 8 event at KeyArena in Seattle. It aired on FOX following prelims on FX and Facebook. MacDonald kicked and jabbed early while Ellenberger sat back a while and seemed to look for his opening. Ellenberger had a couple moments in the first half of the round where he tried to get inside, but he wasn’t able to land anything of significance.
