Brett Johns made it two consecutive UFC victories outlasting Montel Jackson
Wales' Brett Johns made it back-to-back wins by beating American Montel Jackson on points at UFC 'Fight Island'.
After a close bantamweight contest during which both fighters had spells on top, all three of the judges scorecards read 29-28 in Abu Dhabi.
Johns, 28, now has a UFC record of five wins and two losses. Jackson was beaten for the first time in four fights.
On Thursday Johns' trainer Richard Shore's son Jack defeated American Aaron Phillips on Yas Island.
The island in Abu Dhabi has been turned into a closed-off fight zone to stage four UFC events in July during the lockdown for Covid-19.
It has a safety zone which includes an arena, hotel, training facilities and a restaurant which is only open to fighters, coaches, UFC staff and other event personnel.
