DALLAS – Nicolae Negumereanu has now won four consecutive fights inside the octagon after putting away Ihor Potieria at UFC 277.
Negumereanu (13-1 MMA, 4-1 UFC) got the first finish of Saturday’s card at American Airlines Center in Dallas when he showed off some devastating striking to put away Potieria (19-3 MMA, 0-1 UFC) in the second round of their light heavyweight bout.
After a competitive first round, Negumereanu stunned his opponent in the second frame. Negumereanu poured it on and hammered Potieria with a gruesome series of knees that forced referee Kerry Hatley to step in and wave it off.
