Welterweight Kaik Brito earned a UFC contract Tuesday night after demolishing Namo Fazil with a devastating right hand on Contender Series.
Brito connected with what MMA Mania called one of the best right hands since Fedor Emelianenko stopped Brett Rogers, dropping Fazil in the main event of the evening's card. The finish secured Brito a spot on the UFC roster immediately.
Tuesday's knockout capped a standout performance for the welterweight, who used the Contender Series platform exactly as designed. Dana White's weekly showcase continues to produce highlight-reel finishes that earn fighters direct entry into the promotion.
For complete results from Tuesday's Contender Series card, the full fight night rundown remains available on MMA Mania.
