Gegard Mousasi stops Vitor Belfort in impressive performance at UFC 204

— -- Middleweight Gegard Mousasi (40-6-2) stunned Vitor Belfort (25-13) with a right-head kick in the second round, which eventually led to a TKO finish at 2:43 due to strikes on the ground. Mousasi ate two hard left hands in the opening minutes but emerged relatively unscathed otherwise. He immediately claimed the center of the Octagon and calmly stalked Belfort around the perimeter.

Belfort, 39, defended Mousasi's early attempt at a takedown and occasionally flashed the hand speed that has helped make him famous, but his activity was very low. According to Fightmetric, he landed just nine total strikes, compared to 65 for Mousasi.
