Jorge Masvidal played spoiler in the biggest possible way on Saturday.
Fighting in enemy territory, Masvidal scored a monstrous, highlight-reel knockout over Darren Till in the main event of UFC London, starching the Liverpudlian with a wicked left hook at 3:05 of the second round and silencing the English crowd in The O2 Arena.
Check out reaction to Masvidal’s upset victory below, plus the best of the rest from a busy night at UFC London.

Damn. Till got slept! #UFCLondon
— Nicolas “Lokomotivo” Dalby (@DalbyMMA) March 16, 2019
Again, a fighter (Jorge) studied what worked against an opponent (Woodley's footwork and entrances) and utilized it against an opponent relying just on their skills and power, and not a gameplan. #UFCLondon pic.twitter.com/Jtn56tu88A

LEON EDWARDS DEF. GUNNAR NELSON
DAMN!!!! Those elbows were landing HARD from Edwards! #UFCLondon

Edwards was great... but that guard pass! pic.twitter.com/lhx7d8ZhQ9
— Alex Enlund (@AlexEnlund) March 16, 2019
Gunnar finishes the round on top, but Leon will get the nod, and rightfully so. #ufclondon pic.twitter.com/3awsaUKSmI
— The Mane Event™ (@EliasTheodorou) March 16, 2019
I was not expecting a split there at all and I’m a Gunnar Nelson fanboi
— Julie Kedzie (@julesk_fighter) March 16, 2019
Who in the hell is judging these @ufc fights in London tonight?? Is it me or is the judging horrible?
— kurt holobaugh (@KurtHolobaugh) March 16, 2019
I got Nelson winning the decision #UFCLondon

DOMINICK REYES DEF. VOLKAN OEZDEMIR
Think the Reyes hype train just got derailed... #UFCLondon
— Corey Anderson UFC (@CoreyA_MMA) March 16, 2019
2-1 @volkan_oezdemir ? #ufcLondon
— Dennis Bermudez (@MenaceBermudez) March 16, 2019
No offence to Reyes, but I don't think Jon is shaking in his boots (yet) after that performance, especially since Oz prob should have got the nod. #UFCLondon pic.twitter.com/IDBhVJ5X4S
— The Mane Event™ (@EliasTheodorou) March 16, 2019
I was cooking and watching, is the decision right ? #reyesVSvolkan
— Chito Vera (@chitoveraUFC) March 16, 2019
Good fight, close fight #DominickReyes #ufcLondon
— Dennis Bermudez (@MenaceBermudez) March 16, 2019
Reyes won by a split. I have NO FUCKING IDEA HOW?! Did I watch a completely different fight?? Oezedemir definitely lost the 3RD. Looked like he took the RD off. But RD 1&2 were Volkans, IMHO. #UFCLondon
— Aljamain Sterling (@FunkMaster_UFC) March 16, 2019
Volkan won that fight. #UFCLondon
— Matt Schnell (@DANGER_Caged) March 16, 2019
HOW?! #UFCLondon
— Corey Anderson UFC (@CoreyA_MMA) March 16, 2019
What a fight @DomReyes wow! #UFCLondon

Unpopular opinion
— Mike "Biggie" Rhodes (@TeamRocBiggie) March 16, 2019
Reyes didn’t win that fight
I really don't know on this one. Yes, Reyes landed a lot to the body, but overall, thought Oz landed just as much (to his head and legs) and took it. Judges gonna judge... #UFCLondon https://t.co/wXvj08joVy
— The Mane Event™ (@EliasTheodorou) March 16, 2019
Great sound bite but man, I have to watch that fight again bc I must be blind. Good footwork, but Volkan looked to land the bigger and more EFFECTIVE strikes in RDs 1 & 2.
— Aljamain Sterling (@FunkMaster_UFC) March 16, 2019
Btw when talking about damage, is it “effective” or “affective”. Asking for a friend. https://t.co/6EsfMJ1RPb
Wow! I put it all out there and got the W thank you to Volkan for pushing me to the next level! I don't know what's next but I do know I'm 11-0 and getting better. #ufclondon #ufc
— Dominick Reyes (@DomReyes) March 16, 2019

Nathaniel Wood!!! He’s a beast
— Tatiana Suarez (@TSPMMA115) March 16, 2019
The prospect is a beast #UFClondon

The Prospect!

CLAUDIO SILVA DEF. DANNY ROBERTS
The ground is lava, with Silva. #ufclondon pic.twitter.com/iS91d4RBQ2
— The Mane Event™ (@EliasTheodorou) March 16, 2019
Despite all his rage, ref’s really obsessed with cage
— Julie Kedzie (@julesk_fighter) March 16, 2019
Woow!!!
— Belal Muhammad (@bullyb170) March 16, 2019
Verbal tap ? Didn’t hear in the repetition
— Chito Vera (@chitoveraUFC) March 16, 2019
That ref was terrible but if you scream out in pain that’s a tap
— Mike "Biggie" Rhodes (@TeamRocBiggie) March 16, 2019
Bloody hell, what a fight from Silva and Roberts! #ufclondon
— Kate Jackson (@kpajackson) March 16, 2019
That’s some fucking bullshit! These refs are costing people! He was out of the armbar!
— Chas Skelly (@ChasSkelly) March 16, 2019
Plz stop letting these amateur local refs work @ufc events. They be havin some power trip issues
— Andre Soukhamthath (@AndreSoukMMA) March 16, 2019
I believe him I don’t think he tapped Silva could’ve yelled too #ufclondon
— Belal Muhammad (@bullyb170) March 16, 2019
Another bad stoppage ♂️ ♂️ https://t.co/MvprSG48Mm
— GILBERT BURNS DURINHO (@GilbertDurinho) March 16, 2019
Can we get some mandatory training for these refs? There was no tap and no verbal tap. GTF outta here
— Chas Skelly (@ChasSkelly) March 16, 2019
The refs today are complete pieces of shit... they shouldn’t never let any of these guys in the arena. It’s fucking pathetic. They are ruining people’s careers. #ufc #UFCLondon @ufc
— Nik Lentz (@NikLentz) March 16, 2019
JACK MARSHMAN DEF. JOHN PHILLIPS
That was number one bullshit and I really like Jack!
— Alex Enlund (@AlexEnlund) March 16, 2019
Better late than never I suppose. #UFCLondon https://t.co/FvoPuGV7Zi
— The Mane Event™ (@EliasTheodorou) March 16, 2019
I genuinely don’t know what to say I honestly believe I did enough to win that fight...
