Michael Chandler landed what will likely be the KO of the year to defeat Tony Ferguson at UFC 274 tonight.
A wild first round saw Ferguson rock Chandler several times, before Chandler got a huge takedown and proceeded to inflict some nasty ground and pound. Then only 17 seconds into round two, Chandler landed a spectacular soccer kick to the chin that knocked Ferguson out cold. On a high from that spectacular KO, Chandler passionately called out Conor McGregor in his post-fight interview.
It was Chandler’s first win in three fights, having previously lost to Justin Gaethje and Charles Oliveira. He’s now 2-2 since making his UFC debut in January last year. Ferguson, meanwhile, is now on a four-fight skid, having previously racked up losses to Beneil Dariush, Oliveira, and Gaethje.
