Kyle Kingsbury didn't need long to whip Ricardo Romero at UFC 126 on Saturday night.

Kingsbury drilled Romero with knees to the ribs against the cage, dropped Romero with a left hook and then pounced and landed right hands until referee Steve Mazagatti stepped in, correctly, to stop the fight. The whole thing lasted just 21 seconds.

It was a great showing by Kingsbury, a 28-year-old former Ultimate Fighter contestant who is now on a three-fight winning streak. Kingsbury won Fight of the Night his last time out, and he's got a good chance at Knockout of the Night this time around.

Kingsbury improved his record to 10-2. Romero falls to 11-2.
