Another Irishman made his UFC debut on Saturday night and he did so in spectacular fashion. Donegal's Joseph Duffy took just 107 seconds to defeat American Jake Lindsey.
Duffy landed a devastating head kick (watch here) and then went in for the kill. Herb Dean did not wait long to stop the fight.
Twitter was extremely impressed with his first Octagon bout.
I thought Duffy looked really good against mediocre 0-2 ufc fighter. Will be interesting to see him tested by decent level guy. Congrats!

Joseph Duffy: “We’re not here to take part, we’re here to take over!” OK, not really.

A few more performances like that and he might lose that unofficial 'The last man to beat Conor McGregor' nickname.
