“The Korean Khabib” lived up to his nickname Saturday. ChangHo Lee (11-1 MMA, 2-0 UFC) brutalized Cortavious Romious (9-4 MMA, 0-2 UFC) for a second-round TKO on the main card at UFC on ESPN 65. With the fight on the canvas, Lee worked his way to the top and pounded his way to his second win. The finish drew quick comparisons to a nickname taken from ground-and-pound legend Khabib Nurmagomedov. It was Lee’s fifth straight win – four of which have looked similar to what he did to Romious. Take a look at how Lee got the bantamweight division’s attention at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas.
