UFC Austin results: Donald Cerrone waxes Yancy Medeiros with buzzer-beating TKO

The UFC’s #11 welterweight Donald Cerrone let his strikes fly in the UFC Austin main event, dropping the #15 Yancy Medeiros, and finishing up with ground and pound to get the 1st round win. Cerrone still has the accuracy and power as he grows older in his career, and this was a bit of a must win for Cowboy, as this snaps a three-fight losing skid. This loss for Medeiros sends him back down the welterweight ladder.
