Quick read
Manel Kape secured a stunning third-round knockout of Kyoji Horiguchi at UFC Vegas 119, recording his fourth consecutive finish in the flyweight division and moving to first place in UFC flyweight knockout history with five stoppages. Horiguchi had dominated the first two rounds with his trademark blitzing combinations and a sharp jumping left hook, but overextended looking to land a follow-up shot in the third, giving Kape the opening to land a decisive right hand after switching from his southpaw stance. The win sets up a compelling case for a Kape flyweight title shot, with analysts pointing to a potential clash between Kape and current contender Vanzant as a marquee matchup.
