UFC Fight Night 191: Wales' Jack Shore beats Liudvik Sholinian to boost bid for top-15 shot

Jack Shore had to fight in Las Vegas because Covid-19 rules prevented the event being held in London

Jack Shore beat Liudvik Sholinian at UFC Fight Night 191 to boost his hopes of a shot at a top-15 opponent.

The 26-year-old Welsh bantamweight won a unanimous decision against the Ukrainian on Saturday in Las Vegas.

Shore's original opponent Said Nurmagomedov of Russia and then his replacement, Georgia's Zviad Lazishvili, were forced to withdraw.

Shore extended his unbeaten record to 15-0, including a 4-0 tally in UFC.

He had been due to take on Nurmagomedov, who pulled out because of visa issues, before Lazishvili withdrew through injury.

The card was originally due to take place in London, but switched to the UFC Apex Arena in Nevada because of the pandemic and travel restrictions.

The event is being headlined by Liverpool middleweight Darren Till's bout against American Derek Brunson.
