Jamahal Hill, David Onama, and Stephanie Egger also received the performance-related award.

All three fights have ended in finishes. In his first bout <a href="https://www.insider.com/jordan-wright-leaves-hole-in-ufc-opponents-face-wins-debut-2020-8" target="_blank" rel="noopener">he left a hole in Isaac Villanueva's face to force a doctor's stoppage</a> last summer. Next up, he succumbed to a knockout finish at the fists of Joaquin Buckley later in 2020.On Saturday, in front of 16,005 fans at the Toyota Center in Houston, Wright mercilessly hunted <keyword id="9829160" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="60" keywordseo="jamie-pickett">Jamie Pickett</keyword> to secure a first-round finish with a knee to the head during a clinch.Wright threw everything he could at his middleweight opponent and secured a 64-second knockout during the preliminary card on ESPN+, as he continues to make a name for himself as a UFC finisher.Watch it right here:For Wright, it was a great way to rebound following his loss to Buckley."It was a great step in my career coming back from my first official loss and correcting a lot of the mistakes I made in my last fight, showing a great performance," he said in a statement sent to Insider."The game plan was to just kind of feel it out, stay pressured, don't let him capitalize on his game too much and if he gives me an opportunity, take it."He continued: "To be honest, I would have been happy with a decision win, I would have been happy with a submission. I am a finisher, but I don't rush the finish, I try to let the finish come to me as efficiently as I can."Saturday's fight was Wright's first in front of fans during the pandemic, with the event generating ticket sales of $4.11 million, according to a UFC statement sent to Insider."It was really cool. I really felt the love," said Wright. "Before you walk out, you're standing in the tunnel and you're seeing the people there saying, 'Jordan, I love you. Jordan, you're going to win. Jordan, I bet money on you.'"It's cool to see that it's still there. I live by the songbird mentality. The praise doesn't get to me and the negativity doesn't get to me. I'm the songbird just singing my song and doing my thing whether people like it or not."With victory, Wright advanced his pro MMA record to 12 wins (seven knockouts and five submissions) against one knockout loss.

"If I hit him low, I'd relax, and let the ref stop it."See the controversy for yourself right here:Regarding his first-round win, Nickal said: "Overall the performance was as expected."He wasn't the only young talent to get a win at one of the UFC's marquee events of the year.<h2>Ian Garry came from behind to beat Song Kenan in style, before strutting like Conor McGregor</h2><div type="image" title="Ian Garry." height="1334" width="2000" msid="98427519" hostid="261" sizebytes="100184"></div>Another mega prospect, Ian Garry, competed in a separate fight earlier on the UFC 285 card.In a welterweight bout set for three rounds, Irish fighter Garry was tasked with taking on Song Kenan and though Garry lost the first round, he came back in style to inflict a helluva lot of damage on Kenan's face, before sealing the win with a third-round finish.Watch Kenan rock Garry early on right here:See Kenan's face after the eventual three-round beating right here:<div type="image" title="Song Kenan's face." height="1333" width="2000" msid="98427520" hostid="261" sizebytes="91374"></div>Watch Garry's finish here:The up-and-comer even received praise from his countryman <a href="https://www.insider.com/category/conor-mcgregor" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Conor McGregor</a>.<h2>Cameron Saaiman was slapped with a penalty — his second in as many fights</h2><div type="image" title="Cameron Saaiman." height="1333" width="2000" msid="98427521" hostid="261" sizebytes="97106"></div>Cameron Saaiman, a fighter <a href="https://www.insider.com/category/dana-white" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dana White</a> once called "The Future" because of his potential, also won.Saaiman fought Mana Martinez at bantamweight on the preliminary section of the show, and said he's not a dirty fighter despite receiving a point deduction for the second time in as many fights.Saaiman hit Martinez with two low blows in the opening round alone and was slapped with a penalty from referee Herb Dean.Despite that, he won rounds two and three to coast toward a victory on points and advance his pro <a href="https://www.insider.com/category/mma" target="_blank" rel="noopener">MMA</a> record eight wins (five knockouts, one submission, and two decisions).

<ul class="summary-list"><li>Saturday's <keyword id="11922275" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="60" keywordseo="ufc" source="Orion">UFC</keyword> Vegas 55 prelims at the Apex in Las Vegas were an action-packed undercard.</li><li>A grotesquely swollen shin, and the sound of knockout shots, were reminders how painful UFC can be.</li></ul>LAS VEGAS — The <a href="https://www.insider.com/category/ufc" target="_blank" rel="noopener">UFC</a> prelims on Saturday featured a grotesquely swollen shin, the sound of brutal blows, and a new <a href="https://www.insider.com/category/mma" target="_blank" rel="noopener">MMA</a> star on the rise.That new star, a 30-year-old Brazilian called Jailton Almeida, looks like one of the hottest new entrants in the heavyweight division.Almeida caught the attention of UFC brass when he was competing for regional promotions like Thunder Fight in Sao Paulo.In 2021, Almeida fought in Dana White's Contender Series and earned a UFC deal because of a second-round rear-naked choke submission win over Nasrudin Nasrudinov.He scored a first-round knockout win over Danilo Marques earlier this year and returned Saturday to the UFC Apex in Las Vegas for another first-round finish, this time by rear-naked choke again as he topped Parker Porter with relative ease.Almeida is still new to the UFC, but could find himself ascending the heavyweight rankings in quick fashion if he repeats performances like the one over Porter. But that may be a tough feat, as he effectively threw a perfect game.If it was bowling he'd have scored 300. He'd have returned a card without one bogey in golf. Or, if soccer was his thing, he'd have scored with his right foot, left foot, and header for a perfect hat trick of goals.Almeida was just that good this weekend.Against Marques, he did not absorb one strike. He didn't give up any control. He didn't concede any takedowns. He literally didn't allow Porter to do anything according to UFC statistics.Almeida, meanwhile, landed 36 of his 58 strike attempts, enjoyed near enough all of the control time, and succeeded with one of his two takedowns before completing his sole submission attempt.He danced when his official victory was announced, one which advanced Almeida's pro MMA record to 16 wins (six knockouts and 10 submissions) against two losses.Watch the finish right here:<h2>A swollen shin and brutal blows</h2>Elsewhere in the prelims, two separate bouts provided brutal reminders as to how painful competing in the UFC can really be.Jonathan Martinez — <a href="https://www.insider.com/jonathan-martinez-may-be-most-experienced-streetfighter-in-ufc-2020-10" target="_blank" rel="noopener">a former street fighter with more experience than Jorge Masvidal and Kimbo Slice combined</a> — gave an expert demonstration of kicking an opponent's leg to smithereens.In his bantamweight bout against Vince Morales, which was the third fight of the evening, a close-up of the American's leg showed grotesque swelling.That's what happens when an accurate leg kicker targets an area and just doesn't stop throwing.Victory advanced Martinez's pro MMA record to 16 wins (seven knockouts, two submissions, and seven decisions) against four losses.See the damage Martinez did to his opponent right here: Elsewhere, Uros Medic — another Dana White's Contender Series graduate — scored a thumping second-round knockout win over Omar Morales.ESPN broadcast the entire event and posted footage from the fight on its Twitter feed, marveling at the sound of the shots on display.Victory advanced Medic's pro MMA record to eight wins (six knockouts and two submissions) against just one defeat — a UFC 266 loss to Jalin Turner in September, which Medic rebounded from immediately with the statement-making win over Morales.<h2>Joseph Holmes threw a nasty knee strike at Alen Amedovski's face</h2><div type="image" title="Joseph Holmes kneed Alen Amedovski before submitting him." height="1333" width="2000" msid="91717794" hostid="261"></div>Also on the prelims, Joseph Holmes — a 26-year-old Texan nicknamed "Ugly Man" — scored a rebound win of his own.Holmes bounced back from a loss by decision to Jamie Pickett, to submit Alen Amedovski after cracking his jaw with a horrible knee strike.See it all right here:Other results included Sam Hughes' third-round knockout win over Elise Reed in a women's strawweight fight, and Chase Hooper's third-round knockout win over Felipe Colares in a featherweight fight.

Visual Information Specialist Jason Johnston/US ArmyAn airman with Special Operations Command Europe, jumps out of a Black Hawk helicopter, 12,000 feet above the Malmsheim Drop Zone, Stuttgart, Germany, August 17, 2016.US Special Operations Command is weighing the use of nutritional supplements or even performance-enhancing drugs to push the abilities and endurance of its forces beyond current human limits, <a href="http://www.defensenews.com/articles/special-operations-command-wants-to-develop-super-soldiers" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">according</a> to a report from Defense News.While special-operations forces already have access to specialized resources, like dietitians and physical therapists, SOCOM is looking to increase their ability to tolerate pain, recover from injuries, and remain physically able in challenging environments."If there are ... different ways of training, different ways of acquiring performance that are non-material, that's preferred but in a lot of cases we've exhausted those areas," Ben Chitty, the senior project manager for biomedical, human performance, and canine portfolios at US SOCOM's Science and Technology office, <a href="http://www.defensenews.com/articles/special-operations-command-wants-to-develop-super-soldiers" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">told Defense News</a>.While Chitty said SOCOM was exploring nutritional supplements, other substances were in consideration as well."For performance enhancing drugs, we'll have to look at the makeup and safety in consultation with our surgeon and the medical folks before making any decisions on it," he <a href="http://www.defensenews.com/articles/special-operations-command-wants-to-develop-super-soldiers" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">told</a> Defense News.One goal of the research to develop what Defense News referred to as "super soldiers" would be to expand troops' ability to operate in places not well suited for humans - high altitudes or underwater in particular.<a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/dvids/3678999919/in/photolist-6B6Qv6-8vLz1u-pMNUYk-8R25Gq-iuKxNW-8vLj6m-7TMKWo-d4kLXq-d4kKHC-9FXYWi-e7nMPj-9E14DZ-8iCJnk-8iCJqK-5dv1fh-8iFYP7-9E3WHj-9E15o8-bs5uZq-d4kKsN-5K98QQ-d4kLdh-d4kL1d-d4kKQq-d4kMzE-5e1tBS-9pDs1Z-dd1Dpz-bEBHvX-8U9AMP-quYY8Z-9GDQTw-9pDs38-dA3Zbj-aRkV3-ocw5BL-9rapTQ-8vLPQq-9qwxjt-8vLixL-5gUyRQ-9Efybv-GkWfd-8vLgQG-9qwxqR-8vLD9G-8vHLWx-9ZkitX-8vLPiU-8vHofp">dvids/Flickr</a>A Basic Underwater Demolition/SEAL student wades ashore on San Clemente Island during an over-the-beach exercise, designed to prepare BUD/S students for missions that begin in the ocean and move to land, June 24, 2009.While the evaluation process would emphasize safety - "We're not cutting any corners," Chitty said - any proposal to deploy pharmaceutical substances among special-operations troops is likely to draw scrutiny, especially in light of recent revelations about a what Capt. Jamie Sands, the commander of 900 Navy SEALs on the East Coast, called a "<a href="http://www.cbsnews.com/news/navy-seal-drug-use-staggering-investigation-finds/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">staggering</a>" number of drug cases among Navy Special Operations units.Three active and retired SEALs spoke to CBS in April, with their faces masked and voices disguised, telling the network that illicit drug use among SEAL units was increasing."People that we know of, that we hear about have tested positive for cocaine, methamphetamine, heroin, marijuana, ecstasy," <a href="http://www.cbsnews.com/news/navy-seal-drug-use-staggering-investigation-finds/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">one of them said</a>.Another active-duty SEAL described by the CBS report tested positive once in the past for cocaine, and, during a new round of testing prompted by a drug-related safety stand-down in December, <a href="http://www.cbsnews.com/news/navy-seal-drug-use-staggering-investigation-finds/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">tested positive again</a> for prescription drugs. He was being removed from SEAL teams.While Navy SEALs are supposed to undergo regular drug tests, that doesn't always apply when they are away from their home bases. As demand for SEALs in operations around the world has grown, they have spent an increasing amount of time deployed.<a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/usnavy/6555624431/">Flickr/usnavy</a>US Navy SEALs jump from a CH-46E Sea Knight helicopter during training near Fort Pickett, Virginia, December 20, 2011.Three active-duty SEALs <a href="http://www.cbsnews.com/news/navy-seal-drug-use-staggering-investigation-finds/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">told CBS</a> they hadn't been tested in years. Sands, for his part, announced in December that SEALs would start undergoing tests while deployed.While Chitty did not mention the frequency of operations - and the physical and emotional wear and tear related to it - as a reason for pursuing nutritional and pharmaceutical supplements, other special-operations officials have warned that their forces are being depleted by an overreliance on them."We've been operating at such a high [operational] tempo for the last decade plus, and with budgets going down, what we've had to do is essentially ... eat our young, so to speak," Theresa Whelan, principal deputy assistant secretary of defense for special operations, <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/special-forces-groups-problems-2017-5" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">said</a> during a House Armed Services Committee session this month.Special-operations commanders, while acknowledging the strain increased operations have put on their units, have emphasized that <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/special-forces-groups-problems-2017-5" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">they are still capable</a> of addressing threats emerging around the world. But, Whelan told Congress, constant readiness has had and will have consequences."We've mortgaged the future in order to facilitate current operations that has impacted readiness and it's also impacted development of force for the future," <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/special-forces-groups-problems-2017-5" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">she said</a>.
