UFC 224 results: Lyoto Machida KO’s Vitor Belfort with a front kick, Belfort retires

Opening up the UFC 224 main card, Lyoto Machida picked up another highlight reel knockout by kicking Vitor Belfort in the face in the second round. The opening round was lackluster to say the least, full of a lot of feints and even more starring, but the second round made up for that. If you remember correctly, this was the same sort of kick that Anderson Silva used to stop Belfort back in the day.

Machida came in losing three of his last four, and responded with authority, and now owns back to back wins.
