If you left your seat for a minute, you completely missed Sergei Pavlovich’s quick and powerful victory over Tallison Teixiera at UFC Macau.
The two stayed patient in the opening seconds, respecting one another’s power and trying to find an opening. When both of them started to let loose, however, it was Pavlovich who did the landing.
A pair of right hands stumbled Teixeira, causing Pavlovich to fire off a flurry, finishing Teixeira in just 39 seconds.
Pavlovich then used his post-fight interview to call for a title shot or a title eliminator.
