UFC 313 has already gotten off to a huge start, as there have been plenty of finishes in the prelims. However, the main card opened up with a lightweight bout between Mauricio Ruffy and King Green.
Ruffy and Green were going after one another in the first round, and Green got rocked a bit early. However, after some back and forth, Ruffy threw a wheel kick, striking Green right in the side of the head.
