UFC Copenhagen recap: Jared Cannonier provides upset, stops Jack Hermansson

Jared Cannonier provided the upset in the main event of UFC Copenhagen, knocking out Jack Hermansson in the second round.

What was the high point of the fight?

Hermansson started the fight extremely aggressively shooting in several takedowns and constantly keeping Cannonier on the backfoot. Eventually slamming him to the ground, “The Joker” almost wrapped up back control but Cannonier fought it of well.

At the start of the second round as Hermansson shot in for another takedown, Cannonier caught him with a big uppercut that sent The Swede to the canvas. After following up with some heavy ground and pound, Hermansson couldn’t defend himself and the fight was stopped.
