Impact Garcia continues the best run of his UFC career at age 31. Entering as a +150 underdog against an opponent known for his output and pace, Rafa simply outworked Gordon. He closed with a 91-65 edge in significant strikes landed. He also connected on 2-of-3 takedown attempts and was responsible for the biggest moment of the fight when a Round 3 knockdown led to the finish. Garcia is 4-1 in his past five fights dating back to December 2022, with the lone defeat during that stretch coming against a legitimate contender in Grant Dawson. Things are looking up for Rafa.
