UFC on ESPN 2 took place from the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania earlier tonight (Sat. March 30, 2019).

In the main event of the evening, Justin Gaethje pulled off a spectacular knockout victory over Edson Barboza. Both men came into the first round and fired off some heavy shots. Leg kicks played a huge factor for both men, as expected, in the opening minutes.

However, Gaethje quickly made it a dog fight against the Brazilian. He was able to catch Barboza with a huge right hook as he was backing away. The blow rendered Barboza unconscious and ended his night early. The finish was certainly one of the better ending sequences of the night.

Check out how the mixed martial arts (MMA) community reacted to the wild lightweight main event here:

Edson Barboza and Justin Gaethje will meet in a lightweight title eliminator bout in the main event of UFC Philadelphia on Saturday night (March 30, 2019).

As always, Lowkickmma will have you covered with all the results from UFC on ESPN 2 as they happen.

Barboza (20-6) has yet to be in a boring fight throughout his career. He defeated Daniel Hooker via total body destruction in his last outing at UFC on FOX 31. As for Gaethje (19-2). He rebounded from the first setback of his career with a knock out of the year contending KO victory over James Vick at last year’s UFC Lincoln. A win Saturday night would bolster Gaethje’s title push.

Round One

Gaethje throws a hard leg kick and follows it with another. The fighters trade hard kicks with Barboza digging. Gaethje starts to unload on Barboza and he is hurt. Barboza’s eye is messed up. Gaethje presses him against the cage. He lands an elbow and some dirty boxing. They separate. Gaethje wings some wild punches and Barboza goes back to the legs. Gaethje comes over the top with a right hand that sends Barboza to the canvas. Wow.

Justin Gaethje defeats Edson Barboza via knock out at 2:30 of round one
