Another instant victory
Wellmaker defeated Kris Moutinho via KO (punch) at 2:37 of Round 1 at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Atlanta.
ANALYSIS
The UFC was giving Wellmaker a layup here as a -2000 favorite, and to his credit, he did exactly what he had to en route to earning a $50,000 Performance of the Night bonus. Malcolm has displayed elite finishing ability early in his career, and Moutinho can't take extended punishment, so here we are. Wellmaker was credited with 25 significant strikes landed, with the final one -- a massive right hand -- ending things in an instant. Malcolm is in an interesting spot moving forward. He has first-round knockout wins in his first two UFC bouts and his appearance on Dana White's Contender Series, but he has all of 10 professional fights under his belt at age 31. The company seems likely to take it easy with him for another outing or two.
