UFC 312: Du Plessis vs Strickland 2 Main Card Results
The 30-year-old Matthews, who debuted in the UFC as a 19-year-old, was too quick and too polished for the young Prado, who was competing at welterweight for the first time. He landed well in flurries and scored with the heavier blows throughout the contest, leaning on his experience and significant size advantage to get the better of things throughout the three-round affair.
In collecting the unanimous decision win, Matthews picked up his second straight victory, the first time since 2020 that he’s earned the same result in back-to-back contests. This was the kind of effort that should solidify Matthews’ standing in the welterweight ranks, and could earn him a step up in competition next time out.
