Sean Strickland wrapped up the preliminary card portion of UFC’s latest event.
The two fighters met in a welterweight bout at the UFC Moncton from the Moncton Coliseum in Moncton, New Brunswick, Canada. After a solid first round, they moved to the second round where a finish happened. Strickland cracked him with a right to the head and drops him, but Taleb pops right back up. This led to Strickland diving into guard to land a big right hand followed up with some more strikes until the referee jumps in to stop it. Some fight fans could argue that it was a quick stoppage. Either way, the fight is done.
