Thiago “Marreta” Santos treated fans to one of the most entertaining knockouts of the year on Jimi Manuwa with a vicious combo  at UFC 231 on Saturday night.

The two fighters went toe-to-toe and traded a flurry of punches in the light heavyweight bout.

The second round of the fight is when it all ended, as Santos landed a strong left uppercut — which many of us believed would knock his counterpart out. Manuwa, to his credit, took the punch on the chin — literally — but a straight left to the face knocked him down and out for good.
