UFC Fight Night 247 video: Every finish from Las Vegas, including six first-rounders
UFC Fight Night 247 had some rough luck in the buildup, with seemingly more cancellations and 11th-hour changes than the average show.
But Saturday, the 11 bouts that remained on the card picked up the slack. Eight of them ended in stoppages, including the first five fights on the prelims. And six of those finishes came in the first round – a no doubt refreshing change of pace for every-event fans who had grown accustomed to seeing 15-minute fights more often than not in recent months.
In the aftermath, check out all eight of those finishes, which gave the UFC brass a tough task to narrow it down to four bonuses. The stoppages, with all-time highlight-reel knockouts, as well as submissions, are in the video above.
