Islam Makhachev wasted no time tonight.
The fast rising lightweight took Dan Hooker down to the canvas and found himself a kimura to end the bout in under three minutes time. As usual, there were plenty of pros watching at home.

We know how tough and strong these guys are, but also smart. In boxing you need delivery system to land punch, Makhachev has one for his takedown. Impressive. Smart. #UFC267 @MAKHACHEVMMA
