#2 Suman Mokhtarian vs. Sodiq Yusuff:

Yusuff made an impressive debut in the UFC

Round 1: Suman Mokhtarian started the fight by stopping Yusuff's rush and pinning him to the cage. Both fighters went for knees, looking to impress in their Octagon debuts.

Yusuff went for the stiff shots to the head of his opponent and looked to take him out early on. Mokhtarian put his fists up protecting his face, while Yusuff rained down blows on him, leaving him looking a little helpless.

A right hook knocked away a hand and a left jab caught him on the face and referee stopped it. A controversial end to the fight indeed!
