UFC Vegas 75 had some exciting moments, including Manuel Torres knocking out Nikolas Motta in their main card bout. Torres and Motta faced off in a lightweight bout on the main card of UFC Fight Night: Vettori vs. Cannonier. Both Motta and Torres were contender series alumni who had won previous fights under the promotion.
Motta was coming into the fight with a 1-1 record. Meanwhile, this was Torres’s second fight after winning his debut. The pair started off strong, trading leg kicks. Motta drew first blood when he landed a heavy shot, rocking Torres. However, he shook it off soon and went on the offensive.
He did not have to wait long for results as a step-in elbow knocked Motta out cold. Immediately after the win, the elated Mexican star hit WWE star John Cena‘s ‘You Can’t See Me’ taunt. This celebration after that brutal knockout inspired some interesting reactions from the fans on social media.
