In the action (see below), which took place in the last round, Burgos, at first, did not seem to have felt the power of the Brazilian's attack. Moments later, however, the American staggered and ended up falling.

Upon noticing Shane's situation, the Brazilian attacked his opponent, who was on the ground. After a few more attacks, the referee chose to interrupt the confrontation, declaring Edson's victory.

With the triumph, Barboza took an important step forward in the featherweight division (up to 65,7kg). Confirming the good phase, the Friburgo native should now take ninth place in the group led by Alexander Volkanovsky.
