UFC Vegas 113 Prelims: Daniil Donchenko Batters Alex Morono, Earns Decision Win
"Donchenko (13-2, 2-0 UFC) nearly made it a short night at the office. The 24-year-old Tiger Muay Thai representative dropped Morno with a left hook near the fence in Round 1, and proceeded to batter his reeling foe with punches, elbows and hammerfists on the ground. Somehow, Morono made it to the horn. From there, it was a more measured approach from Donchenko, who repeatedly chopped away at Morono's leg and opened a gash near his adversary' mouth with a wicked spinning elbow."
"Kings MMA member Nikolay Veretennikov (14-7, 2-3 UFC) wasted little time imposing his will against against Niko Price (16-10, 9-10, 2 NC UFC), winning via first-round technical knockout in a welterweight showdown. The 36-year-old Kazakhstan native brought a halt to the contest 1:42 into Round 1 to earn his first finish in the Octagon. Price, who stepped in for Jose Henrique Souza on short notice, has tasted defeat in five of his last six UFC appearances."
Daniil Donchenko earned a unanimous decision over Alex Morono after nearly finishing him early with a left-hook knockdown and heavy ground strikes. Donchenko controlled the remainder of the fight by chopping Morono’s lead leg, opening a gash near his mouth with a spinning elbow, and dropping Morono again late while limiting his mobility. Judges scored the bout 30-26, 30-26 and 30-27. Nikolay Veretennikov stopped Niko Price by first-round technical knockout at 1:42 after a precision right hand followed by a knee and elbow, registering his first Octagon finish.
