Axel Sola scored an absolutely devastating one-punch knockout to end Fares Ziam's night in dramatic fashion in the UFC Paris co-main event.
After some early exchanges on the feet, Sola just leaned into his power and uncorked the left hand that slammed into Ziam's face and he immediately fell unconscious to the floor. The referee jumped into stop the fight with the end coming at just 1:40 into the opening round as Solo picked up the win over his fellow Frenchman at UFC Paris.
"Fares is a f*cking great fighter," Sola said after his victory. "Bring your support for him. I hope you like my performance. My job is only to say yes to the matchmakers so I'm waiting on the offer."
The early exchanges were fairly even with Ziam settling into his own rhythm on the feet but it appeared Sola was just biding his time until he saw the perfect opening.
That came with Ziam standing directly in front of him and Sola decided that was the moment to pull the trick and uncork his powerful punch. As soon as Sola connected, Ziam just crumbled to the canvas in a heap as the crowd erupted in celebration from the jaw-dropping knockout.
