This gave him back-to-back stoppage wins after previously finishing TUF 19 finalist Dhiego Lima with elbows at UFC 184 in February. This also marked his 20th career stoppage win, including 14 by way of knockout. UFC 189 is currently scheduled to take place on July 11 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. A featherweight title fight between 145-pound kingpin Jose Aldo and Irish megastar Conor McGregor will serve as the headlining act while a welterweight title fight between newly crowned champion Robbie Lawler and Rory MacDonald will meet in the co-main event.
