It didn’t take long for Jimi Manuwa to take out Corey Anderson on his home turf at UFC Fight Night 107 on Saturday in London.
Manuwa and Anderson each entered this fight looking to remain near the top of the UFC light heavyweight division, although neither was likely to earn a title shot his next time out. Manuwa, however, certainly made a strong case to keep his name in consideration, and feels that he’s earned it.
Saturday’s fight started with Manuwa taking the center of the Octagon, flat-footed, while Anderson was a ball of movement, constantly faking and shuffling side to side.
