Marlon 'Chito' Vera pulled off a massive come-from-behind knockout victory over Dominick Cruz in the main event of UFC Fight Night San Diego.

The bout lived up to the billing after Cruz and Vera put on an exciting show. The former bantamweight champion looked in phenomenal shape as he fired from the first minute. He overwhelmed his opponent by throwing a combination of strikes, takedowns, feints, and different looks.

However, Vera proved he only needed to land one devastating blow to end the night. In round four, the Equadorian connected with a brutal head kick that flattened Cruz out, securing the victory.

In the co-main event, Nate Landwehr and David Onama put on one of the most action-packed fights in recent memory. After three rounds, Landwehr earned a majority decision victory after two judges saw the contest in his favor, while a third one scored the bout a draw. Landwehr and Onama received $50,000 for their work when the featherweights took' Fight of the Night'.

Mexico's Yazmin Jauregui earned a hard-fought unanimous decision win. The 23-year-old went to war with fellow newcomer Iasmin Lucindo. In the end, Jauregui's power and volume helped her secure the win.

In the UFC light heavyweight division, Azamat Murzakanov defeated Devin Clark via third-round TKO. The undefeated Russian now has two UFC wins under his belt.

Priscila Cachoeira extended her winning streak to two after a TKO win over Ariane Lipski. The Brazilian put her opponent away at the 1:05 mark of the opening round.

The UFC Fight Night San Diego main card kicked off with a middleweight bout between Bruno Silva and Gerald Meerschaert. In round three, Meerschaert forced his opponent to tap out via a guillotine choke.
