UFC Vegas 105 is here, and one of featherweight's top prospects gets a stiff test.
Britain's Lerone Murphy has not tasted defeat in his 16-fight MMA career. 'The Miracle' rides an eight-fight UFC unbeaten streak into this weekend's main event, where he faces off against perpetual nightmare matchup Josh Emmett at UFC Vegas 105.
Emmett is known for being a lights-out fighter, and despite being 40 years old, he's still able to find the finish. In his last performance, Emmett knocked out Bryce Mitchell in the very first round, and he'll be looking to replicate this success against Murphy.
