Former Alabama LB Eryk Anders has had a rough go of it in the UFC lately. Entering Saturday night’s match in Minneapolis, Anders was on a three-fight losing streak, and had lost four of his last five.
However, against Vinicius Moreira, he got back in form in a big way, winning his fight only 78 seconds into the first round.
As you can see below, Anders ended the match with a devastating series of punches, after which the referee stopped the action:

The win improved him to 12-4 in his career, and helps him build momentum for his next fight, which has yet to be decided.
Anders has shown great promise in the octagon, so it’ll be interesting to see how his next battle plays out.
