Donte Johnson didn't need much time to pick up his third UFC win.
Johnson (9-0 MMA, 3-0 UFC) took on Eric McConico on the prelims of UFC 330 at Xfinity Mobile Arena in Philadelphia and gave the fans plenty to cheer about. At 1:38 of Round 1, Johnson knocked out McConico (11-5-1 MMA, 2-3 UFC).
The heavy-handed Johnson went to work right away, making sure Johnson felt his power as he applied forward pressure. Johnson threw out a right-hand feint, followed by a huge left power shot to the jaw that sent McConico crashing to the canvas. Johnson rushed in for follow-up punches, and referee Blake Grice got an unwanted piece of the action as he dove in to stop the fight.
During his post-fight interview, Johnson expressed his desire to not only fight in multiple weight classes during his UFC tenure, but aims to capture gold in three weight classes.
With this result, Johnson improves to 3-0 in the UFC with two stoppages. For McConico, his recent trend of wins and losses continues as he struggles to stay consistent.
