Chris Gutierrez joined the UFC history books on Saturday night.
The featherweight fighter stopped Vince Morales with leg kicks in the opening fight at UFC on ESPN 9, which took place at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas. Gutierrez’s win was the 10th stoppage by leg kicks in UFC history.
Gutierrez (15-3-1 MMA, 3-1 UFC) pressed Morales early, walking him down the cage while landing many kicks, most of which targeted Morales’ left leg. The accumulation of the leg kicks made it hard for Morales to stand. After falling several times due to the kicks, referee Jason Herzog shut things down in the second round.
