This Is One Of The Most VICIOUS KOs I've Seen All Year

Ilia Topuria (aka 'Hand Sanitizer Boy, as Paddy calls him now), was a -400 favorite coming into UFC London, and one of the most highly touted fighters on the card. He was also one of the most talked about, after the whole Paddy Pimblett altercation, so it pained me to have to add him to our parlay today - but we just knew he was leaving London with a big win.

It was in doubt in the first, as Jai Herbert landed a MASSIVE head kick that sat Topuria down and punched the mouthguard outta his jaw multiple times....

....but Ilia composed himself, landed a takedown in the first, and then put Herbert out cold in the most devastating fashion possible. It was like Herbert's body activated rag doll physics. Scary shit.

He called Paddy out afterwards, just as he said he would, and the fans hated it. Big boos.

I'd like to see Paddy get one more fight in before moving on to Topuria, but I can't see Paddy turning down a fight, so who knows what happens next.
