Jared Gordon - News & Rumors - UFC

Finished by Rafa Garcia Gordon lost to Rafa Garcia via TKO (elbows) at 2:27 of Round 2 at UFC Noche on Saturday in San Antonio.

Impact For what it's worth, UFC welterweight Belal Muhammad posted on X after the fight that Gordon was hit by a car yesterday and popped his knee out. It would help explain a thoroughly lackluster performance as a -180 favorite. Typically a high output guy, Gordon was outworked by Garcia at every turn. A short right hand dropped him midway through Round 3 and some follow-up elbows closed the show. Five of Gordon's eight career losses have come via knockout and he's now alternated victories and defeats in his past four fights dating back to November 2023.

Statement win over Thiago Moises Gordon defeated Thiago Moises via KO (punches) at 3:37 of Round 1 at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Las Vegas.

Impact On the sidelines for about 11 months following a controversial split decision loss to Nasrat Haqparast last June, Gordon returned to the octagon here in overwhelming fashion. He showed off all aspects of his game, landing an early takedown before eventually blasting Moises into another galaxy with a beautiful right hand. Gordon should have a $50,000 Performance of the Night bonus coming his way, and he deserves it. Jared will be 37 years of age in September. That, combined with the fact he absorbed zero damage in this fight should result in him getting back in there sooner rather than later.
