Francis Ngannou was undeniable in his rematch with Stipe Miocic, decisively stopping the all-time great champion in the second round in the fashion he has with most other opponents: with fists, and brutally.
Miocic thought he’d hurt Ngannou in the second, and quickly found out he was wrong when he ran headlong into a counter that set up a knockout 52 seconds into the second round.
In the co-main event, Vicente Luque submitted Tyron Woodley after tasting the ex-champ’s power in a wild first round.
Here’s what pros had to say about UFC 260.
