"The Ultimate Fighter 27" Episode 6 official result: Ricky Steele def. Suman Mokhtarian via Unanimous Decision (20-18, 20-18, 20-18)
Quotes from this week's fight:
Stipe Miocic: "Suman had a great fight tonight, he has to keep moving forward. You know, Suman knew what he did wrong, and it will be a learning lesson for him, which is okay. He fought hard."
Suman Mokhtarian: " I had a lot of fun tonight, but I let the win get away from me. I wanted to go out there to strike, and try to get the knockout, instead of sticking to the game plan that we set out, but it happens. I have to learn from it, which I will. I hope that I put on a show for Dana White tonight and hope I can get another chance to prove myself."
Cain Velasquez: " Ricky was great in that fight. We have had time to watch a lot of film on Suman. With Ricky’s karate style of fighting and being able to have range with his kicks, we knew he would have the advantage. Ricky really dictated the pace of the fight, with every hit he then moved. The game plan was well executed, with using his range with kicks and strikes."
Ricky Steele: " It was a great fight, Suman really tested me. He came out swinging, and caught me in the eye where I went temporary blind and started seeing three of him. It has happened to me before, so I knew that I could fight through it. Excited to get the win."
