Key takeaways
Glover Teixeira beat Rashad Evans by knockout at 1:48 of round one in the main event of UFC on FOX at the Amalie Arena in Tampa. In the co-main event, Rose Namajunas beat Tecia Pennington by unanimous decision after three rounds.
Across the eleven bouts that produced a result, five ended by knockout, two by submission and four on the judges' scorecards — seven stoppages in eleven fights. One of the four decisions divided the judges.
The quickest finish belonged to John Dodson, who stopped Manvel Gamburyan after 37 seconds, and three of the seven finishes came inside the opening round. The longest was Elizeu Zaleski dos Santos's knockout of Omari Akhmedov, 13 minutes and 3 seconds in. End to end, the eleven fights filled one hour and 42 minutes of cage time.
The preliminary card out-finished the main card: five of its seven results came early, against two of the four above it. Michael Chiesa (submission, round two), Santiago Ponzinibbio (knockout, round one) and Michael Graves (submission, round two) all closed before the judges were needed.
