A rematch of their 2012 fight in Strikeforce, the contest went the same way second time around, with a first round victory for the Brazilian.

It puts Souza back into the conversation at middleweight, which continues to have a multitude of talented athletes at the top of the division. After Souza’s win, it wasn’t just the fans that celebrated his stunning head kick, but several of his fellow fighters on the UFC roster.

Old habits are hard to break. Forward advancement from Brunson makes him raise his own chin. Brunson and Jacare do it again. #UFCCharlotte

Jacare is a baaaaaad man! What a beast! Good way to remind the middleweights of that fact. #UFCCharlotte

Wow! Damn vicious #UFCCharlotte good stoppage

Great stoppage by the ref. I don’t think Jacare was going to let Brunson get his equilibrium back and those punches had some heat on them. #UFCCharlotte
