UFC 303: Alex Pereira shouldn't be denied a shot at a historic third UFC title

Jiu0159í Procházka was very concerned about magic and spirits headed into the UFC 303 main event. Maybe the supernatural force he should have been worried about was Alex Pereira’s left hook.

Just like their first meeting last fall, “Poatan” came away the winner with a second-round knockout on Saturday night in Las Vegas. Only this time the UFC light heavyweight champ made it look easy — and decisive.

After methodically picking away at Procházka for most of the first frame, Pereira dropped the challenger with a left hook right at the horn.
