Francis Ngannou defeated Renan Ferreira (referred to as Lins) with a knockout late in the first round, though Netflix did not provide clear replay footage of the decisive uppercut. Alternative phone footage from a different angle still does not definitively show whether the uppercut landed cleanly, though Ngannou clearly connected with a left hand that dropped his opponent. Ferreira entered the fight on a four-fight UFC winning streak but weighed only 100kg at the weigh-in, giving Ngannou a massive 16kg weight advantage—his largest ever. The fight lasted 4.5 minutes primarily due to grappling exchanges in the clinch and on the ground where Ferreira attempted to survive. Ngannou appeared in excellent condition both visually and performance-wise, making it more disappointing that his planned fight with Vadim Nemkov did not materialize.
