UFC 260 will be the last PPV event without fans, as the UFC will be heading to Florida and Texas for a packed crowd for the next few PPV cards. Heavyweight knockout artist, Francis Ngannou, will headline the card as he takes on the champion, Stipe Miocic. The main card started off with a bang as Jamie Mullarkey starched Khama Worthy in under a minute. 

Mullarkey, who hails from Australia, was supposed to fight on the card along with his teammate Alexander Volkanovski. However, the featherweight champion could not make it due to  COVID-19. Despite that, he has his eyes on the event and reserved a massive shout-out for his country mate.

Mullarkey has not had the best start to his UFC career. He succumbed to two losses in his first two fights in the promotion against the likes of Brad Riddell and Fares Ziam.

However, Jamie could not have asked for a better way to secure his first win in the UFC. The Australian fighter feinted with a right hand and as he stepped in, he threw a left hook that caught ‘The Deathstar’ off guard. As soon as the punch landed, Worthy‘s legs gave out, and he hit the floor. Mullarkey then finished off the fight with a few shots on the ground before the referee stepped in and ended proceedings.
