UFC Fight Night: Santos vs Hill Main Card
Main Event: Jamahal Hill defeats Thiago Santos by TKO (strikes) at 2:31 of Round 4
It wasn’t as clean and efficient as his last couple wins, but Jamahal Hill capped off a night of finishes with a fourth-round stoppage win over Thiago Santos in the main event.
The surging Hill came out quickly, looking to make quick work of the Brazilian, but it wasn’t meant to be. Instead, the light heavyweights battled tooth-and-nail for every inch, with Santos turning to his wrestling, registering six takedowns on a high volume of attempts through the opening three rounds. It was extremely close heading into the championship rounds, but then Hill took control.

Neal started well, staggering Luque multiple times in the opening stanza before letting the durable and dangerous Top 10 stalwart get back into by letting off the gas a little in the second.

The Dana White’s Contender Series alum has now won back-to-back fights to remind everyone that he’s a force to be reckoned with in the welterweight division.

Coming out of the gate fired up and looking for a finish, McKinney got loose with his hands early against Erick Gonzalez, walking him down without pause, looking for big shots as “Ghost Pepper” covered up. When Gonzalez landed one right in response and looked to step forward soon after to follow, McKinney changed levels and put him on the canvas with a beautifully-timed double leg.
Although Gonzalez worked back to his feet, McKinney stayed tight to him, jumping on his back, sinking in his hooks, and then fishing for the rear-naked choke. Gonzalez had no choice but to tap, giving “T. Wrecks” his third UFC win and third first-round finish. | Official Scorecards
