Chidi Njokuani put the UFC middleweight division on notice with a nasty elbow KO of Dusko Todorovic at UFC Vegas 55 tonight.
The highlight reel finish came with just 12 seconds left in round one after Njokuani struggled to deal with the grappling of Todorovic. It was Njokuani’s fourth successive win and his second KO victory in the UFC since making his debut in February.
