The 1st round of Trevin Jones’ UFC debut started off pretty rough. Even though taking the fight on just 24-hours notice, Jones was in the middle of taking some crippling shots from Timur Valiev that had the judges and many fighters on social media wondering how Jones was still standing. A late recovery and scored takedown had Jones just making it out of the round.
Jones played patient in the 2nd round checking leg kicks and avoid too much damage before unloading a powerful right hook that dropped Valiev instantly. Jones would pounce on Veliev and connect with two more big bombs that forced the referee stoppage.

Ashley Samaniego and the UCLA Bruins made it to the NCAA Women’s Final Four, before losing to eventual champions UConn.
The 2007 Simon Sanchez graduate is in his first year with the Bruins women’s basketball team as the Director of Athletic Performance. This after years at California State University, Northridge in the same capacity.
Coach Ash must be bringing some goodness to the Bruins as UCLA is currently ranked #1 in the country and earned its first No. 1 seed in the NCAA Tournament in program history.
