The lightweight preliminary battle at UFC 294 between Mike Breeden and India's Anshul Jubli was a thrilling spectacle, with both fighters showcasing their striking skills right from the opening bell.

In the first round, Breeden and Jubli seemed to respect each other's abilities, connecting with significant strikes but also displaying a sense of caution. However, it was in the second round that the fight truly ignited.

Jubli, known as the 'King of Lions', adopted a more aggressive stance, attempting to take command of the bout. He landed a powerful strike that opened a nasty cut above Breeden's left eye. Despite this adversity, the 28-year-old 'Money' showed incredible resilience, refusing to back down.

As the fight hung in the balance during the third round, Mike Breeden elevated his aggression. What made this round stand out was Breeden's unusual tactic – he began barking and taunting his opponent. One can say this unorthodox strategy paid off as 'Money' connected with a thunderous right hook that sent Anshul Jubli to the canvas, ultimately leading to a spectacular third-round TKO victory.

In the comments section of a video shared on UFC's official Instagram handle, Nina-Marie Daniele couldn't help but offer her take on Breeden's unconventional approach to victory:

"Best barks in the UFC 😂"

Jubli had entered UFC 294 as an undefeated prospect with immense hype around him. This was only his second fight in the promotion, against a 34-year-old veteran with a less remarkable record of 10 wins and six losses.
