Unranked Cody Garbrandt storms into title contention with furious first-round flurry

When knockout artists meet, guess what's likely to happen.

Sharing a combined 23 KO/TKO finishes going into Sunday night, a stoppage win was always on the cards when Cody Garbrandt met Thomas Almeida in the main event of UFC Fight Night 88. The killer instinct possessed by both men has made them must-see television and they lived up to the hype in Las Vegas. And with undefeated records on the line, it was Team Alpha Male's Garbrandt who came out on top. Garbrandt was unranked at bantamweight when he made the walk to the Octagon but he's bound to shoot up the rankings when they're updated early this week. Watch the frightening first-round flurry in all its devastating glory.
