BATTLE ISLAND– A UFC debutant took “Fight Island” by storm when he bulldozed through his challenger, winning by knockout in 45 seconds Sunday.
Meet Tom Aspinall, a 6-foot-6 Englishman who barely broke a sweat in his MMA match at the Flash Forum in Yas Island, Abu Dhabi.
Aspinall brought a heavy-handed track record with him to the Octagon, and a precise and clubbing one-two punch combination brought his opponent Jake Collier to the canvas, where he then cringed on all fours, desiring the bout to be over.
Collier was barely in the fight, landing just 3 of 9 strikes attempted. Aspinall, meanwhile, landed all 10 of his strikes– many of them significant, tossed with brute force.
