Conor McGregor might be Dublin's most famous fighting son right now.
The Notorious has put the city's Straight Blast Gym on the map around the world.
But he's certainly not the only exciting fighter to emerge through the doors of John Kavanagh's gym.
Big things are being expected of young SBG fighter Dylan Tuke - especially after an impressive pro debut win over Adam Caffrey at BAMMA 22 last year.
But The Nuke proved he truly is a deadly weapon with a ruthless finish over Mark Andrew in front of his hometown crowd at BAMMA 24
The knee which crumpled his opponent was as quick and precise as it was powerful. You could see it had done some real damage the moment it landed - just look at the lads face.

The contest was over just moments later as Tuke rained down blows. He wont just 51 seconds into the first round.
This is why people are saying there's a big future ahead for The Nuke.
Fans weren't getting at all carried away by the impressive first round finish...
