Jared Gordon KOs Mark O. Madsen with crushing right hand in round 1 – UFC 295 Highlights

Jared Gordon got back into the win column in a big way at UFC 295 on Saturday night.

After running into a bit of bad luck in his last two outings, ‘Flash’ got his career back on track with an impressive first-round knockout of Mark O. Madsen inside the world’s most famous arena, Madison Square Garden.

Madsen came out looking to put the pressure on Gordon right out of the gate. In the opening minutes, Gordon looked completely overwhelmed by the pace that the Olympian had established early. However, Madsen began to slow down in the latter half of the round, allowing Gordon to slow things down by pressing Madsen against the fence wall.
