UFC free fight: Ian Machado Garry lands clean head-kick in impressive TKO of Daniel Rodriguez

Ian Machado Garry has been making plenty of noise in the UFC.

The unbeaten welterweight contender has delivered in all his UFC performances, but perhaps none better than his win against Daniel Rodriguez. Garry put away Rodriguez with a beautiful sequence that began with a clean head kick. He then followed up with punches to make the first-round stoppage official.

You can watch Garry’s first-round finish over Rodriguez in the video above.

Garry (13-0 MMA, 6-0 UFC) next is booked for a welterweight bout against Geoff Neal (15-5 MMA, 7-3 UFC) at UFC 298 on Feb. 17 in Anaheim, Calif. The two originally were scheduled to fight in August 2023 at UFC 292, but Neal withdrew from the fight due to undisclosed reasons.
