Alistair Overeem kicked off the main card of UFC 209 from the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas with a third-round TKO victory over Mark Hunt in heavyweight action.
Fox Sports had the official result:
Both fighters lived up to their reputations as K-1 kickboxers in the first round. Overeem opened up a nasty cut on Hunt's leg with an oblique kick, while Hunt peppered his opponent's body with some powerful leg kicks.
Overeem's ability to control the range of the fight was evident in the opening round, and it was the reason MMA Fighting scored the round for the Demolition Man:
The second round was a much more aggressive stanza for The Reem.
