UFC 259: Blachowicz and Nunes keep title belts while Sterling wins on DQ

• Blachowicz wins and halts Adesanya's bid for two UFC belts
• Nunes defends title with first-round submission of Anderson
• Sterling wins UFC bantamweight title when Yan disqualified

Jan Blachowicz defended his UFC light heavyweight title with a unanimous decision over previously unbeaten Israel Adesanya at UFC 259 on Saturday night, thwarting Adesanya's bid to hold two championship belts simultaneously.

Aljamain Sterling also won the UFC's bantamweight title when Petr Yan was disqualified for an illegal knee strike in the fourth round. Two-division champion Nunes then defended her featherweight belt with ease, beating Megan Anderson by submission 2:03 into the first round at the Apex gym on the UFC's corporate campus.
