SINGAPORE – Jake Matthews showed his best form to date inside the octagon on Saturday when he scored an absolutely brutal knockout of Andre Fialho at UFC 275 . In his first fight since March 2021, Matthews (17-5 MMA, 11-5 UFC) looked extremely sharp engaging in an all-out slugfest with Fialho (16-5 MMA, 2-2 UFC), who came into the contest with a lot of momentum on his side with his third fight in 46 days. Matthews brought that momentum to a screeching halt, however, when he landed a flurry of punches to end a damage-heavy affair with Fialho at the 2:24 mark of Round 2 inside Singapore Indoor Stadium.
