Nassourdine Imavov not only picked up the biggest win of his career against Israel Adesanya in the main event of UFC Saudi Arabia, he didn't need the judges, or two full rounds to do it as he delivered a knockout less than a minute into Round 2. Was the stoppage call from referee Marc Goddard the correct one? Following Saturday's card in Riyadh, MMA Fighting's Mike Heck and José Youngs react to Imavov's victory, discuss where it puts him in the title picture, who he could face next, along with Adesanya's future following his third consecutive loss. Additionally, topics include Michael Page's lopsided decision win against Shara Magomedov in their middleweight bout, Sergei Pavlovich's much-needed — albeit not all-that-thrilling — win over Jairzinho Rozenstruik, big wins from Farez Ziam and Vinicius Oliveira, and much more.
