Dwight Grant got back into the win column in violent fashion.
After dropping a narrow split decision in his UFC debut to Zak Ottow in December, “The Body Snatcher” was in desperate need of a victory when he entered the Octagon against Carlo Pedersoli Jr. at UFC Prague.
After a fairly competitive opening round, Grant dislodged Pedersoli’s mouthpiece with a devastating right hook to the jaw. With little time to work, Grant swarmed on his reeling opponent with a flurry of strikes, forcing the referee to stop the fight with just one second left in the round.
