The Las Vegas crowd was ready for the main event after 3 of the previous 4 bouts ended in knockouts.

An awkward leg kick from Masvidal buckled the knee of Jermall, resulting in a torn meniscus in his left knee during the third round.



With his meniscus torn, Jermall Jimenez knew he had to earn the knockout finish against the champion; & that's exactly what he did.



"Aaaand NEW!!! Undisputed, UFC Welterweight champion of the world, JERMALL JIMENEZ!"

Oh he's going on his championship run Getting that belt despite getting your leg ripped up was clutch as well.

Yeah that was really clutch. Once that injury happened I knew I had to hurry up & close the fight before I ended up getting cooked myself. Luckily we KO'd Masvidal in no time.

UFC 613: (14-1-0) Jermall Jimenez vs. Stephen Thompson (18-7-1)
Welterweight Championship Bout, Main Event: Mar. 27, 2055 - T-Mobile Arena, Las Vegas, NV



Saved by the bell! Jimenez defends himself until the horn as Thompson nearly secured the victory in the first round.



"The champion looks absolutely gassed after that first round. Let's see what he has left in the tank for round 2." Michael Bisping, UFC Commentary



Jimenez suffered his second straight knee injury after Thompson checks the leg kick attempt.



A superman punch off the cage rattled Thompson to the mat, however he executed a perfect reversal to avoid Jimenez's ground striking.



& just like that, Jermall Jimenez gets his revenge on Stephen Thompson with a nasty head kick at the end of the 2nd round.
