Pendred keeps unbeaten tag

Ireland’s Cathal Pendred remains unbeaten following victory over Russian Gasan Umalatov at UFC Fight Night 53.

Pendred was under plenty of pressure during three close rounds but eventually came out on top in a split decision (29-28, 28-29, 29-28).

The Irishman started well and looked set for a take-down but his opponent was plucky and looked the more dangerous at times.
