In the words of the legendary announcer Bruce Buffer, "And still....undefeated, Dominick 'The Devastator' Reyes" shocked the crowd at the TD Garden with a sensational first-round KO of former UFC middleweight champion Chris Weidman in the main event of UFC on ESPN 6.
Reyes stretched his winning streak in the UFC to six fights with this win and by the look of it, he is all set to get the title shot against Jon Jones up next.
Going into the fight, everyone was interested to see how Chris Weidman would thrive in his first fight at UFC light heavyweight. Reyes had promised that he would steal the spotlight from Weidman and so he did. Reyes made good on his promise of laying the hurt on 'The All American' Weidman.
