Earns contract by crushing opponent
Kondratavicius defeated Đani Barbir via TKO (punches) at 1:06 of Round 1 at Dana White's Contender Series on Tuesday. After the show, he was one of five fighters to be officially awarded a UFC contract.
ANALYSIS
Kondratavicius showed his scrambling ability on the ground before backing his opponent to the cage and folding him with a solid right hand. While officially ruled a TKO, it was clear that Barbir had been separated from consciousness, returning only after absorbing a shot on the ground. Middleweight is one of the more intriguing divisions in the UFC, and an all-around fighter like Kondratavicius will immediately add to its depth. He improved to 8-1-0 in professional MMA as a result of the victory.
