UFC 206 Results: New UFC Interim Featherweight Champion Crowned

Max Holloway didn't care that Anthony Pettis missed weight for UFC 206. "Blessed" was still eligible to win the interim featherweight title, an that is exactly what he did Saturday night, scoring a third round TKO with just 10 seconds left in the round. Pettis missed weight Friday, coming in three pounds over and was not able to win the belt had he claimed a victory.

Holloway kept his run intact, winning once again and adding Pettis' name to his list of victims. Pettis is a former UFC lightweight champion.

Donald Cerrone knocked out Matt Brown in the third round of their welterweight co-main event fight, remaining unbeaten at 170 pounds. Kelvin Gastelum also picked up a finish, stopping Tim Kennedy, while Cub Swanson downed Dooho Choi and Emil Weber Meek topped Jordan Mein.
