Fact: You could fit 36 Frankie Edgar walkouts into how long this Jacare walkout is taking.

Souza just dummied Brunson. Still looks elite even in his advanced age.

I'm surprised at the approach that Brunson took.

Wow! Damn vicious #UFCCharlotte good stoppage

Brunson couldn't help himself. Started reaching recklessly and getting countered.

Old habits are hard to break. Forward advancement from Brunson makes him raise his own chin. Brunson and Jacare do it again. #UFCCharlotte

Jacare Souza makes it 2-0 against Derek Brunson. First round KO. Title shot aspirations still alive at 38 years old. Great win.

Daaaaaaymn!!! Brilliant! ?????? #UFCCharlotte

Pretty savage of Jacare to just calmly walk in for the finish after the head kick landed. That was some Terminator-type shit.

WOW! Great finish by @JacareMMA! https://t.co/QkbHhnzRi0

Jacare is a baaaaaad man! What a beast! Good way to remind the middleweights of that fact. #UFCCharlotte

— Kenny Florian (@kennyflorian) January 28, 2018

Great stoppage by the ref. I don’t think Jacare was going to let Brunson get his equilibrium back and those punches had some heat on them. #UFCCharlotte

— Aljamain Sterling (@FunkMaster_UFC) January 28, 2018

Jacare Souza is now tied for the 5th-most finishes in UFC middleweight history with seven. #UFCCharlotte
