Returning to the winner’s enclosure for the first time since last summer, New South Wales native, Tyson Pedro made incredibly lightwork of the highly-touted, Anton Turkalj in the main card opener of UFC 293 tonight in Sydney, Australia — stopping the Swede with a first round TKO win ‘Down Under’.
Pedro, who suffered a decision loss to the returning former undisputed Cage Warriors light heavyweight champion Modestas Bukauskas back in February of this year at UFC 284 in Perth, Pedro had previously landed a run of two consecutive victories over both Ike Villaneuva, and Harry Hunsucker, both with first round TKO triumphs.
