Deiveson Figueiredo didn't leave UFC Fight Night 169 with a belt around his waist, but he did score a memorable TKO win over Joseph Benavidez in the main event from Norfolk, Virginia.

The two wasted no time trying to end each other's night. Figueiredo caught Benavidez in a deep armbar attempt that nearly put a stop to things, but he was able to scramble his way out of it and get the fight back to the feet.

What a scramble! @JoeJitsu didn't come this far to have it end there.
