{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}The former NFL defensive end went straight down to the mat and Tuivasa finished him off with a few hammer punches before the fight was called.
It is Tuivasa’s third consecutive win. He defeated Harry Hunsucker, via technical knockout at UFC on ESPN 21 in March. Last October, he knocked out Stefan Struve. He is not in the Top 14 in the latest UFC heavyweight rankings but another victory could make him a legitimate contender for the belt.
