Video: UFC 171 'Fight Motion' super slo-mo highlights are mind-boggling

We saw a new welterweight champion crowned earlier this month at UFC 171 in Dallas after fists flew for 25 minutes.

But there were plenty of highlights, and all of them look just a little bit more epic behind the lens of a super slow-motion camera.

Take a look at the UFC’s “Fight Motion” highlights to see the way faces distort when they’re being hit and the way ribs rattle when they’re being kicked.

UFC 171 took place March 15 at American Airlines Center in Dallas. Along with Johny Hendricks’ title fight win over Robbie Lawler, Tyron Woodley took a step closer to contention with a win over Carlos Condit, Myles Jury beat up Diego Sanchez for three rounds and Hector Lombard topped Jake Shields.
