After Getting Bonus Demands Refused the Last Time, Dana White Receives a Message From Justin Tafa Moments After Laying Opponent to Waste at UFC 293

Sydney was not kind to Austen Lane, and the initial bit of the match turned out to be deja vu for Justin Tafa.  However, this time, it ended with a win for Tafa.  The Aussie fans got to see their second UFC card by hosting the much-awaited UFC 293 event in Sydney. In fact, the spotlight of the event is going to be the bout between Israel Adesanya and Sean Strickland for the middleweight strap in jeopardy.

Both fighters came inside the octagon to display their dominant sides. Both, in fact, had sheer intensity to outclass each other, but fate eventually went on to favor the homeboy as the Aussie crowd saw an emphatic ground and pound to end the fight.

An emphatic blow from Justin Tafa at UFC 293

A rescheduled bout in the Qudos Bank Arena mesmerized the fans after their first match was halted in a mere 29 seconds due to an accidental eye poke. On the one hand, Lane aspired to handle the situation to sustain his undefeated 7-match streak; on the other hand, Tafa came to surprise Lane with his attributes. The first round began with a rather nasty low blow, as Lane aimed to kick Tafa and again targeted his eye.

But little did he know that his deeds would backfire on him as Tafa’s nasty jab dropped him down and was followed by a series of blows, and boom! The game was over. Furthermore, Tafa kept his previous KO triumph in mind as he asked the UFC head honcho Dana White for a whopping fifty thousand dollars while talking to Daniel Cormier in the post-fight octagon-side conversation.
