Every single one of Dominick Reyes ’ professional finishes has come in the opening five minutes. In his third UFC outing, the undefeated Reyes (12-0 MMA, 6-0 UFC) was matched up with fellow knockout artist Jared Cannonier at UFC Fight Night 129 in Santiago, Chile. Both fighters were throwing heat right off the bat, with the smaller man Cannonier pressing forward. Reyes was doing a good job of evading Cannonier’s big overhand rights, countering effectively, with in-and-out movement. He also employed some leg kicks to try and slow down Cannonier’s movement. Almost three minutes into Round 1, Reyes clipped Cannonier with a counter left uppercut, which stumbled him back.
