UFC 333 LIVE: Alexander Volkanovski vs Movsar Evloev start time, undercard, fight updates and results

Both men stand orthodox. A few low kicks from Magomedov early on, and Rowston looks uncomfortable.

The Aussie shoots for a takedown, but he’s caught in a guillotine… they hit the mat… and he goes to sleep!!!

Rowston tried to clear the legs and get off to the side, but he couldn’t, with Magomedov keeping his arm locked tight across Rowston’s neck!

Abus Magomedov def. Cam Rowston via first-round submission (guillotine choke, 1:44)

We move up to 185lb now, where Abus Magomedov and Cam Rowston will square off.

Grant Dawson def. Nurullo Aliev via unanimous decision (29-27, 29-27, 29-27)

Aliev actually sat on the canvas between rounds two and three, and now he’s lying on his side – post-fight – pointing to his thigh, it seems.

Aliev throws a jab then misses with a slow, looping left hook. Dawson kicks low, and does so well. He then shoots for a single-leg, before switching to a back body lock.

The pair separate and Dawson lands a clean left hook. He soon gets Aliev down again, with two minutes to go, and he’s in the Tajik’s closed guard.

Aliev needs something REALLY special to get the win now!

Dawson shoots again, but he has trouble clearing Aliev’s legs as the Tajik sits on the mat.

Aliev gets free, and back on the feet he lands a couple of clean shots. But Dawson fires back well, too! His shots are wider than Aliev’s, but they’re landing.

Dawson again has Aliev down but this time he wraps up the legs, Khabib style.

He’s holding Aliev down and has been doing so for a while. The first round might’ve been tight (before Aliev’s docked point), but this has been Dawson’s for sure.

Aliev is able to stand late on, and another fun striking exchange follows.

Back under way, and Aliev catches Dawson on the end of a high kick.

Both men look quite sloppy in the striking exchanges, and a grappling spell ensues.

Aliev shoots a failed takedown against the fence, and it’s eventually Dawson who gets down Aliev and tries a D’Arce choke in the final seconds – to no avail.

Dawson stands orthodox; Aliev is southpaw. Aliev backs up Dawson early. The American tries a single-leg that has Aliev looking a bit panicked, but Aliev quickly comes forward with a flurry of fists, overwhelming Dawson against the fence!

Dawson looks to shoot for a takedown again, and a scramble ensues. Aliev ends up getting ahold of Dawson and hauling him down. He’s in Dawson’s closed guard briefly, but the pair soon return to the feet.

Good overhand right from Aliev. Both men slip while throwing kicks, Aliev first then Dawson.

Aliev capitalises on Dawson’s fall with hammer fists, but the action is paused! They were illegal shots to the back of the head, and he’s docked a point…

Okay, Tajikistan’s Nurullo Aliev emerges for his lightweight title with Grant Dawson, followed by the American himself.
