UFC Fight Night 197 video: Khaos Williams flattens Miguel Baeza in third round

Khaos Williams packs a serious punch.

On the main card of UFC Fight Night 197 at the UFC Apex, Williams (13-2 MMA, 4-1 UFC) ended what was an incredible fight up to that point by sending Miguel Baeza (10-2 MMA, 3-2 UFC) crashing to the canvas from a right hand.

Williams improves to 4-1 under the UFC banner, with three devastating knockout finishes to his credit. The hard-hitting welterweight previously finished Alex Morono and Abdul Razak Alhassan in the first round, and on Saturday added a third-round finish of Baeza to his resume for his second win of 2021.

Baeza, a Dana White’s Contender Series veteran who has shown a lot of promise as a future contender, suffers his second straight loss after his Fight of the Night war with Santiago Ponzinibbio in June.
