Watch the knockout blow that Stipe Miocic landed on Junior dos Santos at UFC 211.
When Stipe Miocic and Junior dos Santos first fought, it was a back and forth war that went the distance. They rematched to headline UFC 211, and the outcome was completely different.
Miocic needed just a little over 2 minutes to knockout Dos Santos to get revenge and defend his UFC heavyweight title. After taking two early kicks that hurt his calf, the champion backed Dos Santos to the fence, and landed an overhand right to finish the fight.
