As per usual, Kelvin Gastelum proved tough to finish over five rounds with Jared Cannonier, who twice knocked him on his butt. In the end, though, Cannonier’s offensive work carried the day in the UFC Vegas 34 headliner.
Cannonier captured unanimous 48-47 scores, putting him back in the win column after a loss to ex-champ Robert Whittaker in which he broke his arm. Gastelum suffered his fifth loss in his past six outings.
Here’s what pros had to say about UFC Vegas 34.
Super close fight. Gastelum pushed the action and held center of octagon but Cannonier landed the bigger shots.

Shows what I know. They’ve been buzzing for 25 minutes. Good fight main event #UFCVegas34 Canonnier for the decision, gotta make a bottle GN

Very competitive. A little more volume and I thought KG would’ve taken it or even pressing JC against the cage more. Big win for JC but KG is a savage! He’s fought all the best guys that 185 has to offer in the UFC https://t.co/Judmz0Crta

Hubbard is tough but there’s some things he needs to work out. Pichel looked much bigger and actually used some really strong footwork to cruise to that win. Idk if Hubbard is a bit too small for the weight class #UFCVegas34

That man is the number one contender

Pantoja’s BJJ is pound for pound high-level. And as I type this we see Pantoja finish a RNC on Royval. Damn, was hoping Brandon would win. Great fight and big win for Pantoja #UFCVegas34
