Zhang Mingyang delivered a memorable debut at UFC 298.

From the moment Zhang stepped into the Octagon against Contender Series alum Brendson Ribeiro, fans were on the edge of their seat expecting a highlight-reel-worthy finish. They got exactly that when ‘Mountain Tiger’ delivered a straight left followed by a right hand and finally, another nasty left that sent Ribeiro crashing to the canvas.

Zhang quickly swarmed his opponent and delivered some brutal hammer fists that ultimately rendered his opponent unconscious, forcing referee Mike Beltran to step in and call for the stoppage less than two minutes into the contest.
