FIGHT ISLAND — An MMA fighter finished his opponent with a knee to the face, then hit him with six more punches when he was already defeated on the floor.
The stunning finish was delivered by Roman Dolidze, who annihilated Khadis Ibragimov on the preliminary section of the "UFC Fight Night: Figueiredo vs. Benavidez 2" show, which is the third of the UFC's four "Fight Island" events on a quarantined section on Yas Island in Abu Dhabi.
Dolidze landed 19 of his 22 strikes in the bout which is an extraordinary accuracy ratio of 86%. Ibragimov, in contrast, only landed four of his 14 significant strikes, according to official UFC statistics.
Ultimately, there was only one strike that mattered — a hard, chin-checking, lights-off switching knee which finished Ibragimov's participation in the bout.
Sensing a highlight-reel knockout, Dolidze pounced on Ibragimov and hit him with afters until he was separated by the referee.
