MELBOURNE, Australia – With a gorgeous pair of spinning strikes, James Moontasri made Anton Zafir’s UFC debut one he’d like to forget.

Moontasri (9-3 MMA, 2-2 UFC) drilled Zafir (7-2 MMA, 0-1 UFC) with a spinning kick to the right ribs, and when Zafir started to crumple, Moontasri put a fist on his face for good measure at UFC 193 at Etihad Stadium in Melbourne, Australia.
