LAS VEGAS – Just as Marcus Davis appeared on his way to a decision win and successful lightweight debut, Jeremy Stephens’ right hand came a knockin’.
Staggered in the first and third rounds and sometimes struggling to land cleanly on his opponent, Stephens unloaded a perfectly placed right hand to set up a third-round knockout victory.
The bout was the featured attraction on UFC 125’s preliminary card, a portion of which aired live on ION Television from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.
