After patiently biding his time, Rozenstruik stopped Augusto Sakai with left hook-right hand combination and follow-up punches 4:59 into the opening round of their UFC Fight Night 189 headlining encounter at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas on Saturday night. Rozenstruik now has 11 KO/TKO victories on his professional mixed martial arts resume.

16: Significant strikes landed by Rozenstruik. Sakai, meanwhile, landed just three in 4:59 of Octagon time.

2: UFC victories for Rozenstruik in which he has ended a bout with five seconds or less remaining in a round. The first such victory occurred 4:56 into Round 5 of a UFC on ESPN 7 headlining encounter against Alistair Overeem in December 2019.

8: First-round stoppages for Rozenstruik. In UFC competition, “Bigi Boi” has finished Sakai, Andrei Arlovski and Allen Crowder inside of a round.

19: Signficant strikes by which Harris outlanded Tybura. “The Big Ticket” had his Polish foe reeling in the bout’s opening moments, but things went downhill for Harris once he was taken to the canvas.

59: Total strikes landed by Tybura. By comparison, Harris landed 23 total strikes. Tybura ended the bout with a steady stream of punches from back mount.

That ties her with Joanne Calderwood and Lauren Murphy for the fourth most in the history of the flyweight division. Only Valentina Shevchenko (seven), Katlyn Chookagian (seven) and Gillian Robertson (six) have won more at 125 pounds.

4: Finishes at 125 pounds for De La Rosa, who earned the first KO/TKO victory of her pro career on Saturday night. That ties her with Shevchenko for the second most finishes in the history of the women’s 125-pound division. Only Robertson (five) has more.

That is the second greatest deficit for a UFC heavyweight in victory behind only Arjan Singh Bhullar, who was outlanded by 40 significant strikes in a victory over Juan Adams at UFC Fight Night 151.

6:17: Total control time for Latifi in Rounds 1 and 3, when he landed one takedown apiece. Boser, meanwhile, held a 34-to-6 edge in significant strikes in the second frame, when he was on the verge of finishing his opponent.
