SAO PAULO – If there was a window in Ibirapuera Gymnasium for defense to be thrown out of, Kevin Souza and Mark Eddiva walked up to it and sent it packing. But it was Souza (15-3 MMA, 2-0 UFC) who finally was able to stop a zombie-like Eddiva (6-1 MMA, 1-1 UFC) late in the second round after Eddiva again tried to walk through a massive barrage of punches. The featherweight bout was part of today’s TUF Brazil 3 Finale event at Ibirapuera Gymnasium in Sao Paulo, Brazil. It aired on FOX Sports 1 following additional prelims on UFC Fight Pass and ahead of a main card on FOX Sports 1. The story of the fight was Souza having apparently little defensive answer for Eddiva’s kicks, which ultimately seemed to slow him down, and Eddiva having no real answer for Souza’s punches other than attempting to walk through them.
