UFC Shenzhen Results: Fighter shocks the world to knock out Champion in 42 seconds

#5. Weili Zhang vs. Jessica Andrade (Women's Strawweight Championship)

Andrade vs. Zhang.

The term historic gets thrown around a lot but this main event truly represented a monumental occasion in UFC's history. And Weili Zhang didn't disappoint as she gave 1.4 billion Chinese people a big reason to celebrate and it just took her 42 seconds.

Round 1: Inside leg kick from Zhang. Andrade pushed forward as expected. Zhang kept the kicks coming but found herself in the pocket. She ate a few shots from a rampaging Andrade, who as we all know, loves to fight in the pocket and indulge in some dirty boxing. What followed was goose-bump inducing good!

Zhang cracked Andrade with a quick right and both women began trading shots. Zhang caught Andrade and punished her with some brutal knees. Andrade got pushed back but Zhang followed her until she put her to sleep with a string of massive parting shots.

And just like that, China has its first UFC World Champion. Take a bow, Weili Zhang. These are the moments that leave you speechless.

Result: Weili Zhang def. Jessica Andrade TKO (0:42, Round 1)

Congratulations to Weili Zhang and her camp for giving the fans one of the best UFC moments of the year. Props to Jessica Andrade as well for being a true professional in her post-fight interview.
