Monster Energy’s Yair Rodríguez Defeats Jeremy Stephens in Featherweight Bout at UFC on ESPN 6 in Boston

It took two tries to get it right! Monster Energy congratulates Yair Rodríguez on defeating Jeremy Stephens in the co-main event at UFC on ESPN 6 inside TD Garden in Boston on Friday night. In front of a high-energy crowd, the 27-year-old MMA athlete from Parral, Mexico, won the featherweight fight by unanimous decision after going blow-for-blow with his opponent for three rounds. Each of the two fighters also took home a $50,000 bonus for their 'Fight of the Night'.

Friday night's bout between Rodríguez and Jeremy Stephens was a highly anticipated rematch. On September 21, the two had already faced off in the UFC Mexico City main event. But when an accidental eye poke left Stephens unable to continue after only 15 seconds, the fight was ruled a 'no contest' and tensions between both camps were riding high ever since.

This time, Rodríguez wanted to set the record straight against the 33-year-old MMA veteran. Both fighters came into the Octagon swinging, Rodríguez landing punches to the head and a switch kick to the chin before taking Stephens down with a jab before the end of round one. In the second round, Rodríguez sent Stephens to the canvas with a stunning body kick and rained punches from above, almost securing a finish as his opponent struggled on the ground. Be alert to the latest news.

The third and final round opened with an all-out brawl between both fighters before Jeremy Stephens scored a takedown and proceeded to punish Rodríguez with relentless ground-and-pound attacks. Absorbing massive damage, Rodríguez thwarted all finish attempts until the final buzzer. He was helped back to his feet by Stephens in a genuine show of sportsmanship, making all pre-fight beef forgotten.
