Francis Ngannou

Francis Ngannou scored another quick win at UFC Phoenix by taking out one of the greatest heavyweights of all time, Cain Velasquez.

Velasquez started the bout by firing several kicks, and as he changed levels in search of a leg, Ngannou fired in a couple of punches. Velasquez went down in a heap and is knee appeared to buckle, so hopefully, the former heavyweight champ was not seriously injured in the exchange
