Jarjis Danho ensured himself a highlight reel out of his first UFC win on Saturday.
The 37-year-old heavyweight obliterated Yorgan De Castro on the preliminary card of UFC on ABC 2 with a first-round knockout.
The punch that finished De Castro (6-3 MMA, 1-3 UFC) couldn’t have been more perfectly timed or placed. After an even back-and-fourth, Danho (6-1-1 MMA, 1-1-1 UFC) caught De Castro with an overhand right to the temple that slept him instantly and sent him crashing to the canvas.

The bout marked Danho’s first fight since September 2016. He was out for almost five years and was still hunting for his first UFC win as he had picked up a draw and a defeat in his first two bouts with the UFC.
