UFC Vegas 58 results and highlights: Rafael Fiziev TKOs Rafael dos Anjos in final round

Rafael Fiziev scored the biggest win of his career in the main event of UFC Vegas 58. With just a handful of seconds elapsed in the fifth and final round, Fiziev hurt and knocked out former lightweight champion Rafael dos Anjos to extend his winning streak to six. Fiziev’s vaunted power and exemplary takedown defense were on display, and while dos Anjos put in a very good effort and appeared to be gaining some steam heading into the last round, the heavier-handed Fiziev landed the most telling punches of the contest to definitively announce himself as a contender in the 155 lbs division.
