Marlon Moraes got it done in the rematch. After a split decision loss to Raphael Assuncao in 2017, ‘Magic’ took matters to his own hands and finished his opponent with a tight guillotine choke after knocking Raphael down earlier in the first round. On Twitter, pro fighters enjoyed the short, but thrilling fight at UFC Fortaleza that capped off a night full of finishes.
