Charles Jourdain drops veteran with ‘perfect’ flying knee before UFC Vancouver finish

Charles Jourdain nearly knocks out Davey Grant with flying knee at UFC Vancouver

It took Jourdain less than three minutes to find Grant’s chin.

After a little back-and-forth in the opening round, ‘Air’ Jourdain landed a beautiful flying knee on Grant’s face, sending him down to the ground.

“How is Davey Grant still trying to stay in this fight?” UFC commentator Paul Felder said as Grant was still conscious after the flying knee.

Jourdain landed nasty ground and pound strikes before jumping for a guillotine submission. Jourdain smiled just before Grant tapped out to the choke.

“How did he not go straight out off of that? That was perfect by Charles Jourdain. Beautiful jumping knee,” said UFC commentator Cormier.

“His face is destroyed,” Cormier said of Grant after the fight.
