KICK GAME PROPER! Ryan Benoit lands a vicious knee for the victory vs. Ashkan Mokhtarian! #UFCSydney https://t.co/VNxjXCr1AF

If Ryan Benoit hadn’t missed weight, he’d probably be in line for a extra $50,000 at UFC Sydney.

Benoit (10-5) demolished Ashkan Mokhtarian on Saturday night, starching the Australian flyweight with a grisly third-round knockout at UFC Sydney. Benoit, who also holds a TKO win over 125-pound contender Sergio Pettis, sent Mokhtarian (13-3) toppling to the canvas out cold with a flush head kick.
