What a left kick by @JoeJitsu !!! This was a sharper and tougher Formiga but it was another nice KO for Benavidez.

Joe B is one of the sports greats. If you can’t admit that it’s just because you hate little people. #UFCMinneapolis

Joe B legend!!’ @JoeJitsu
— Dan Ige (@Dynamitedan808) June 30, 2019
If I lost the first crack at @HenryCejudo to @JoeJitsu, I wouldn’t be mad at all. Joey B is legend of the game and with that performance it’s tough to argue who should get the first chance to dethrone the King. Congrats Benevidez! #UFCMinneapolis
