The Brazilian Jussier formiga achieved an important victory at UFC 221, an event held this Saturday night (10), in Perth, Australia. The native of Rio de Janeiro submitted Ben Nguyen, scoring his second consecutive victory in the octagon and asking for the chance to challenge the champion Demetrious Johnson.
In the fight, Formiga avoided the North American's game from the first round, but the triumph only came in the last part. In the third round, the Brazilian landed a beautiful round punch, knocked Nguyen down and followed up with a rear-naked choke. As 'Ben 10' didn't hit, he ended up deleting it.
