Beijing, November 25: Francis Ngannou stopped Curtis Blaydes in just 45 seconds during the main event of UFC Fight Night 141: Blaydes vs. Ngannou 2 which took place at the Cadillac Arena in Beijing, China on Saturday (November 24).

Ngannou, who defeated Blaydes in 2016 by doctor's stoppage, needed just 45 seconds this time around to finish the Razor with a TKO. An overhand right took Blaydes off his feet, and Ngannou never let him recover.

Ngannou connected a big right hand to drop Blaydes face first into the mat. The Predator later pounced on him and landed punches while Blaydes tried to recover with takedown attempts, but Ngannou's offense continued until the referee called for the stoppage.

In the co-main event, Alistair Overeem was on two-fight losing streak and was badly in need of a win, and he got one against promotion's newcomer Sergey Pavlovich.

Overeem stopped Pavlovich via TKO at the 4:21 mark of the first round. Overeem too down Pavlovich and landed a heavy right hand, and more punches to get the stoppage.

In the main card opener, hometown's favourite, Li Jingliang recovered after suffering a knockdown in the first round and finished debutant David Zawada in the third round.

The Leech Jingliang stopped Zawada in the final minute of the final round. To be precise the stoppage came at the 4:07 mark of the third frame.

Also on the main card, Song Yadong cruised to a unanimous decision win over Vincent Morales. With that win, Yadong remained perfect in the UFC by sweeping the judges scoresheet by a trio of 30-27 scores.

Earlier, in the preliminary card there were stoppage wins for Wu Yanan, Weili Zhang, Kevin Holland and Louis Smolka. While, Alex Morono, Rashad Coulter, Liu Pingyuan and Yan Xiaonan earned decision wins.
