Unable to derail Michael Morales
Griffin lost to Michael Morales via unanimous decision (28-29, 28-29, 28-29) at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
Griffin was the better man for five minutes before being blown out of the water by one of the top prospects in the sport today. Max stuck close to Morales for the entirety of Round 1, limiting the space of his massive opponent. He became increasingly less effective in that area as the fight progressed and Morales responded by landing a ton of power shots. Griffin attempted to flip the script by wrestling, but failed on all eight of his takedown tries. Set to turn 38 years of age in late November, Max remains a well-respected veteran at 170 pounds, but this was a big ask. "Pain" has alternated losses and wins in his past four fights.

Griffin will face off against Michael Morales at UFC Vegas 76 on July 1, Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl reports.
ANALYSIS
Griffin most recently took down Tim Means by way of split decision in October, and he has won four of his last five fights in the UFC. The 37-year-old American fighter will look to continue building his resume against Michael Morales in July.

Strong run continues
Griffin defeated Tim Means via split decision (29-28, 28-29, 30-27) at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
This fight was nowhere near as close as the "split decision" term would lead you to believe. It was a clear Griffin victory, highlighted by a massive knockdown of Means in Round 1. Both men landed three takedown attempts, but Griffin was far more effective in controlling his opponent on the mat. Max connected with power, while Means threw plenty of volume, none of which damaged his opponent. The soon-to-be 37-year-old Griffin has won four of five dating back to November 2020.

Facing Means in October
Griffin will fight Tim Means at the UFC event scheduled to take place on Oct. 29, Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl reports.
ANALYSIS
Griffin hasn't fought in almost five months after losing to Neil Magny via split decision in March, so he should be in good form heading into his next bout against Means in the fall. The 36-year-old will look to get back to the .500 mark with the promotion against Means, who is two years his elder at age 38.
