HIGHLIGHTS

  • The main event winner's post-fight interview was more memorable than the fight itself.
  • A 20-year-old delivered the most savage finish of the evening on the prelims.
  • One all-action brawl ended in the first round and earned both fighters a bonus.

Renato Moicano made easy work of Chris Duncan in the main event of UFC Vegas 115 on Saturday night from the APEX. Moicano then unleashed a profane tirade during his post-fight interview that mixed Jesus Christ's name with obscenities and a ton of other things.

He fought well, though.

Moicano submitted Duncan via rear-naked choke at 3:14 of round two. Duncan showed heart in the first round but Moicano’s grappling was too much once the fight hit the mat.

Moicano is at a point of his career where he's grasping for relevancy. He's 36 and he's long hit his ceiling as a title contender. Back in 2022 after Moicano defeated Brad Riddell via submission at UFC 281, the former delivered his first unhinged post-fight interview. People loved it and now it has become his signature. Saturday was a bit much, though.

Still, he fought well.

Moicano didn't fight well enough to earn one of the performance bonuses, but he did have one of the more memorable moments from a low-key card.

The moment many people will be talking about happened on the prelims.

Alice Pereira (no relation to Alex Pereira, though she looked like Poatan on Saturday) delivered the finish of the evening and it earned her a $100,000 bonus. The 20-year-old lost her UFC debut via split decision in September 2025 to Montse Rendon. She rebounded in a major way with a savage KO victory over Hailey Cowan. Here’s the finish and the immediate post-fight interview.

She goes by the name of "Golden Girl," but that was a platinum finish. The young up-and-coming fighter talked about her goals in the post-fight interview.

The other individual performance bonus went to Alessandro Costa for his second-round KO win over Stewart Nicoll.

The fight of the night bonus went to Tommy McMillen vs. Manolo Zecchini in an all-action brawl that culminated in a first-round TKO win for McMillen.

Here is a look at all of the results from the evening.

What Were the Other Key Results?

Virna Jandiroba beat Tabatha Ricci by unanimous decision in the co-main. Abdul-Rakhman Yakhyaev submitted Brendson Ribeiro in under three minutes. Ethyn Ewing landed a body-shot KO on Rafael Estevam in round three after Estevam missed weight.

What’s the Takeaway From UFC Vegas 115?

Pereira is the future. A 20-year-old rebounding from a debut loss with a savage KO and a $100,000 bonus is the kind of statement that puts you on the map. She's the name to remember from this card.

The rest of the evening was what you’d expect from an Apex card. Moicano reminded everyone he’s still skilled, McMillen and Zecchini left it all in the cage, and Jandiroba stayed relevant at 115 pounds.

All things considered, the card had its moments even without big names to draw.
