On Saturday night, Jairzinho Rozenstruik delivered one of the most brutal knockouts of the year against Alistair Overeem at UFC DC.
Rozenstruik, who many felt was losing the fight going into the final round, knocked out Overeem in the final five seconds of the fifth round to win the fight.
OMG. You could see that coming and it was still shocking. Alistair Overeem was gasssssed. Final 10 seconds of a fight he had to have been winning, Jairzinho Rozenstruik lands the walkoff shot. Woooow.

Apparently Rozenstruik hit Overeem so hard that he knocked out a big piece of his lip.

Even Dana White was horrified by Overeem’s nasty-looking lip.
