Cezary Oleksiejczuk
Poland
Quick finish earns contract
Oleksiejczuk defeated Theo Haig by KO (hammerfists) at 0:36 of Round 1 at Dana White's Tuesday Night Contender Series. After the show, he was one of four fighters to be awarded an official UFC contract.
ANALYSIS
Oleksiejczuk was efficient from range early, forcing his opponent to shoot a takedown, which was the beginning of the end. He sprawled and started clobbering Haig with hammerfists to the side of the head, which put him out cold. Referee Gary Copeland went to replay review to confirm the shots were legal, which they were, validating the victory and early stoppage. The younger brother of current middleweight fighter Michal Oleksiejczuk, Cezary will join the 185-pound division as well.
