Lone’er Kavanagh’s first UFC fight on home soild was a memorable one.
Last March, Kavanagh got the opportunity to fight in his home country, as he was matched up against Brazil’s Felipe dos Santos at UFC Fight Night 255 – which took place at The O2 Arena in London, England. Kavanagh got his hand raised in the end, winning a unanimous decision that left both fighters bloodied up. It was a fun fight, and a big win for the Englishman, who at the time maintained his unbeaten record.
