No. 1-ranked Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Featherweight Movsar Evloev scored a polarizing majority decision over Lerone Murphy in the main event of UFC London yesterday (Sat., May 21, 2026) inside the O2 Arena in London, England.
Many observers felt Murphy took the first two rounds, while Evloev rallied to win the final two. In round three, Evloev was docked a point for a low blow — but still appeared to win the frame, leading a large portion of fans and media to score the fight 47-47.
Still, Evloev walked away with the win — and plenty of debate followed.
Just not from UFC CEO Dana White.
“What was the controversy?” White said during the UFC London post-fight press conference. “Well, I think one of the judges probably had it a draw — but yeah, I don’t think there was any controversy.”
That’s certainly one way to look at it.
Of course, it’s possible he caught the fight elsewhere backstage — but his lack of a strong opinion didn’t exactly clear things up.
Controversy aside, White did acknowledge that Evloev is firmly in the title picture following the win.
“Possibly, yeah,” White said when asked if Evloev was next in line to face Alexander Volkanovski. “I’m not even thinking about that. The fight just ended. But yeah, he’s obviously in a good position.”
Whether fans agree with the decision or not, Evloev remains undefeated — and now sits closer than ever to his first shot at UFC gold.
