Dustin Jacoby: TKO Win Over Kennedy Nzechukwu ‘Means Everything’
Dustin Jacoby (19-7-1 MMA, 7-4-1 UFC) got back into the winner’s circle in a big way against Kennedy Nzechukwu (12-4 MMA, 6-4 UFC) in Nashville on Aug. 5.
“The Hanyak” needed just 1 minute and 22 seconds to end Nzechukwu’s night, landing a flush right cross that put Nzechukwu down. Jacoby landed some ground strikes, forcing the referee to pull him away for the TKO.
Jacoby snapped a two-fight skid, including a controversial decision loss to Khalil Rountree, with the win. The victory helped Jacoby keep his light heavyweight ranking, as well.
