UFC Vegas 70: Nikita Krylov vs. Ryan Spann live results [UPDATED]

Two top-10 UFC light heavyweights will do battle in an effort to move up in the ranks, as Nikita Krylov and Ryan Spann square off in the main event of UFC Vegas 70.

Krylov’s results have ultimately been a mixed bag since he returned to the UFC in 2018. He is just 4-4 in the promotion since then, but his losses have come to noteworthy competitors in former champions Jan Blachowicz and Glover Teixeira, as well as Paul Craig and former title challenger Magomed Ankalaev.

Krylov comes in off back-to-back victories, however, knocking out Alexander Gustafsson in 67 seconds in July and defeating Volkan Oezdemir by decision at UFC 280 in October.

Spann is 7-2 since entering the UFC through Dana White’s Contender Series. He has won three of his last four, most recently knocking out Dominick Reyes in 80 seconds at UFC 281 in November.

The co-main event will see a middleweight matchup between André Muniz and Brendan Allen. Also on the card will be Tatiana Suarez, the winner of The Ultimate Fighter season 23, who will be competing in the Octagon for the first time in nearly four years.
