UFC Fight Night 114 results: Humberto Bandenay stuns Martin Bravo with vicious KO in UFC debut

Humberto Bandenay made his UFC debut as a heavy underdog against Martin Bravo, but he only needed two kicks and 26 seconds to prove the oddsmakers wrong.

A head kick from Bandenay (14-4 MMA, 1-0 UFC) knocked Bravo (11-1 MMA, 1-1 UFC) out cold in the opening minute of the fight, giving Bravo his first professional loss in a violent upset finish.

The featherweight bout was part of the main card of today’s UFC Fight Night 114 event at Mexico City Arena in Mexico. It aired on FS1 following prelims on FS1 and UFC Fight Pass.

After taking the fight on short notice, Bandenay’s win was as much about the set-up as the finish itself. Squaring up with Bravo in the center of the cage, Bandenay thumped the body of Bravo with a hard kick.

As Bandenay wound up for another, Bravo dropped his hands as he changed levels, leaving his chin unguarded as Bandenay’s knee slammed home. Bravo was out before he hit the mat, his hands frozen in front of him as he lay on the mat unconscious.

With the win in his UFC debut, Bandenay has now won his last six fights. Bravo suffers the first loss of his pro career.
