Featherweight contenders Josh Emmett and Calvin Kattar squared off in the main event of the recently concluded UFC on ESPN 37 event. The Fight Night event took place in front of a live crowd at the Moody Center in Austin, Texas.

The pair went the full distance in a thrilling back-and-forth contest, with Emmett emerging victorious via split decision at the end of the five scheduled rounds. The outcome came as a surprise to many, who claimed that Kattar had done enough to pick up the win on the night.

Judge Chris Lee, who scored the split-decision for Josh Emmett, somehow gave him the 4th round. That was the clearest round of the fight… but for Kattar! Emmet got dropped and outlanded by a huge margin. Absolutely indefensible score that decided the fight, unreal. #UFCAustin https://t.co/qCTW9aVn1k

Kattar did, in fact, record a higher number of both total and significant strikes compared to Emmett in the fight. Following the victory, Emmett called for a shot at the 145lbs title against the winner of the upcoming fight between Alexander Volkanovski and Max Holloway.
