UFC Halifax Highlight Video: Watch Thiago Santos Finish Jack Marshman With a Wheel Kick

Mike SloanFeb 19, 2017


Thiago Santos was in control of his duel with Jack Marshman in the first televised bout on FS1, but he was dropped and badly dazed by a late flurry in the opening round.

Santos cleared his head and continued to brawl with the Welshman, and it seemed like a terrific back-and-forth skirmish was on its way. The action continued into the second, but the Brazilian ended things in highlight reel fashion when he uncorked a spinning head kick that leveled Marshman on impact. Santos pounced on his woozy foe immediately and unloaded a quick torrent of punches until referee Brad Jardine had no choice but to intervene. The official time of the spectacular knockout came at 2:21 of the second.
