THEMBA Gorimbo secured his fourth consecutive Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) victory, defeating American Nico Price in Las Vegas on Saturday.

Gorimbo won by a unanimous points decision (30-27, 30-27, 30-27), solidifying his dominance.

“I’m sore, but winning by any means necessary,” Gorimbo said. “On to the next one — four in a row. God is good. What a life, what a blessing. I wanted a finish, but Niko was tough.”

According to Cagesite Press, Price overcame early adversity in the opening frame.

Gorimbo took the fight to the ground, settling on top while Price closed his guard. Round two saw back-and-forth action on the feet, but Gorimbo’s takedown shifted the momentum. He was active with ground-and-pound, despite Price escaping to his feet.

The third round was another dominant frame for Gorimbo, translating a takedown into significant-top time.

The win gives Gorimbo four straight victories under the UFC banner, following his victory over Ramiz Brahimaj in his previous fight.
