Sodiq Yusuff barely even had time to break a sweat in his main card bout opposite Don Shainis at UFC Vegas 61.
The 29-year-old entered the matchup with the debuting Shainis as the event’s biggest favorite by a rather significant margin, but Yusuff’s performance showed why he was so heavily favored.
The two featherweights came together early, and a clinch allowed “Super” to hammer knees to the body of Shainis as the UFC debutant tried to get to the fence for a takedown. The attempt to get things to the canvas turned out to be ill-advised, as Yusuff quickly wrapped up the neck of “Shameless” and forced a tap just 30 seconds into the fight.

Even though a Yusuff victory was the assumed outcome for the fight, a number of people still commented on how dominant “Super” looked at UFC Vegas 61.

The series of knees from the Thai clinch by Yusuff was just ridiculous. A lot of fighters would have gone down to those body shots, and then he pulls off the choke on top of it. Incredible showing. #UFCVegas61— Adam Martin (@MMAdamMartin) October 1, 2022
