Nets contract with dominant showing
Sosa defeated Mackson Lee via unanimous decision (30-27, 30-27, 30-26) at Dana White's Contender Series on Tuesday. After the show, he was one of four fighters to be officially awarded a UFC contract.
ANALYSIS
Sosa controlled this fight from the opening bell, stalking his opponent and uncorking big shots before transitioning to a wrestling attack. Unlike most fighters who come from the Contender Series, Sosa has a wealth of experience, including an amateur background that spanned a whopping 20 fights. The gradual movement seems to have paid off for Sosa, who looks incredibly composed and can stick to a game plan. He will need to draw upon everything he has learned in the UFC, as there aren't many soft landing spots at bantamweight. Sosa moved to 14-1-0 in professional MMA as a result of the victory.
