An ugly, foul-laden fight between Brad Tavares and Dongi Yang ended with Tavares' hand raised on Tuesday at UFC on Fuel 3 in Fairfax, Va., as he took a unanimous decision with scores of 29-28 across the board.
The accidental illegal blows landed early for both, as each fighter poked an eye of the other. Tavares' was so bad he had trouble with it the rest of the fight, but lied to cageside doctors saying that he could see in order to keep the fight going.
The slow back and forth continued for 15 minutes, though it would be halted again when Tavares landed a low blow on Yang in the final frame. Ultimately, Tavares squeaked out two rounds on each of the judges' scorecards for the win.
