Junior Dos Santos stopped Derrick Lewis by technical knockout on Saturday night in the main event at UFC Fight Night in Wichita.

Later in the round, the 265 pound Lewis kicked Dos Santos in the head, causing him to start bleeding from the corner of his eye. Dos Santos came back later in the round by landing a kick into Lewis’ abdomen, that put him in obvious pain.

Lewis started off the second round with another kick to Dos Santos’ head. Dos Santos responded by laying a right hook to Lewis, causing him to stumble against the cage. The opportunity allowed Dos Santos to lay multiple punches, where he ultimately ended up winning by the means of technical knockout.
