This impressive knockout, the sixteenth of Oliveira’s career, solidifies him as a force to be reckoned with in the bantamweight category.
The confrontation, initially not so expected, became the focus of attention when Oliveira, following resisting an initial dominance by Sopai, executed a surprising reversal on the ground at the end of the second round.
The climax came in the third round, with a spectacular flying knee that left Sopai unconscious, sealing the victory for Lok Dog.
The impact on social media was phenomenal, and the UFC recognized Oliveira’s feat with ‘Performance of the Night’ and ‘Fight of the Night’ bonuses, adding $100,000 to his victory.
With a record of 20-3, Oliveira has shown his ability to finish fights, while Sopai, at 11-3, experienced his first loss by finishing.
