Glover Teixeira was the highlight of UFC on FOX 19, an event held this Saturday night (16), in the city of Tampa, in the United States. In the main fight of the attraction, the Brazilian needed less than two minutes to run over the former light heavyweight champion Rashad evans and leave the octagon with another big victory.

From the opening seconds, Glover showed that he would be aggressive as usual. The Brazilian started by cornering Evans against the fence and throwing blows, but, initially, the American avoided the risks. However, with less than two minutes of action, Glover connected with a sharp left cross on Rashad's chin, who fell.
The former champion tried to get up, but Teixeira took advantage of the moment to connect another hook to the chin, which caused Rashad to fall, knocked out, face down on the Octagon floor.
Thus, Teixeira scores another consecutive victory, as he came from positive results over Patrick Cummins and Ovince St Preux. Evans, in turn, is still going through a terrible phase in the UFC: it was his second defeat in a row, with his most recent triumph being in November 2013.
