Video: UFC veteran Victor Hugo lands vicious 11-second knockout

Victor Hugo showed why he was on the UFC level not long ago with a devastating knockout in his return to the regional scene on Saturday.

Hugo (26-7), who went 1-1 in the UFC during a short-lived tenure in 2024, had lost consecutive fights since parting ways with the organization. He got back on track in a big way at BnD Black Cup in Osan, South Korea, scoring an absolutely brutal first-round knockout of Mitsuhiro Toma (15-13-2) in their featherweight bout.

"Striker" lived up to his nickname, dropping his opponent with a knee at the opening bell before pouncing with punches. Toma tried to get up against the fence, but that allowed Hugo to break free and land a flush kick to the noggin.

It all happened in about 11 seconds, and you can watch the full fight below (via X):
