Latest heavyweight on UFC roster
Diniz defeated Eduardo Neves via KO (punch) at 3:15 of Round 1 at Dana White's Tuesday Night Contender Series. After the show, he was one of five fighters to be awarded an official UFC contract.
ANALYSIS
Diniz is only 6-0 as a professional at the age of 32, but he has an extensive kickboxing background. That made it perhaps a questionable decision for Neves to come out as confident as he did, often taunting the Diniz misses. Eventually, Diniz found his mark by way of two first-round knockdowns. The end result was Neves face down in the center of the cage, and Diniz coming away victorious as approximately a (-140) betting favorite. There's potential here in a relatively thin heavyweight division.
