UFC Sacramento: Josh Emmett Takes Out Mirsad Bektic

Josh Emmett buzzed his hometown crowd tonight at UFC Sacramento, as the Team Alpha Male member put away fellow, featherweight contender Mirsad Bektic in the opening round.

Bektic came out pressuring early on, and Emmett looked to counter. Approximately 90 seconds in, Emmett just missed with a huge right. Bektic fired off the odd kick and offered more volume through the opening minutes, but with one minute left, Emmett dropped Bektic with a stiff jab. Emmett swarmed in with more punches from above and that was that. Huge win for Emmett.
