Gustavo Oliveira definitely added a new highlight to his reel on Saturday at PFL Europe 2.
The 28-year-old prospect fighting out of Portugal uncorked a hellacious spinning back elbow that absolutely demolished opponent Anas Azizoun in the first round in their bantamweight matchup.
The commentary team nearly came unglued after Oliveira stepped into the pocket for an exchange but then unleashed the spinning back elbow that not only landed clean but rendered Azizoun unconscious before he ever hit the canvas.
Watch the knockout video below:
The end came at 3:25 in the opening round.
It was a stunning knockout that certainly deserves to get Oliveira some more attention after such a memorable finish.
Following his win, Oliviera took time to pay tribute to Portuguese soccer player Diogo Jota, who tragically died in a car crash on July 3 while traveling with his brother in Spain. Oliveira had a handmade shirt with Jota’s name and number on it as his name was announced as the winner.
