Herbert Burns made his official UFC debut today on the Fight Pass prelims, but due to the jaw-dropping knockout he scored, a lot of folks are seeing what “The Blaze” did…
Burns bombs out Nate Landwehr
The Brazilian featherweight, who is the younger brother of welterweight Gilbert Burns, locked up a UFC appearance last summer by submitting Darrick Minner on Dana White’s Contender Series. At UFC Raleigh today he squared off with former M-1 Challenge champ Nate Landwehr.
As you can see by watching the clip below, Burns ended the fight with a booming knee in round one.
OOOOOOOOH MY GOODNESS!
