Deiveson Figueiredo needed less than two minutes to successfully defend his flyweight championship for the first time in the UFC 255 main event.
After dismantling Joseph Benavidez to claim the vacant title earlier this year, the Brazilian “God of War” made quick work of Alex Perez with a nasty guillotine choke with the fight coming to an end at just 1:57 in the first round. The victory marks Figueiredo’s first as champion and his fifth win in a row overall.
“I promised my master I was going to do this,” Figueiredo said about his submission win.
