Gian Villante and Corey Anderson slugged it out in brutal fashion at UFC of Fox 15, on Saturday night. Villante eventually claimed the win over “Beastin’ 25/8” with a crunching overhand right.

The solid strike landed flush on the button and caused Anderson to stagger backwards towards the fence, where Villante followed and pummelled him until the ref had seen enough. It was Anderson’s first professional loss.

Such was the damage done to Anderson in the bout that he was booked in for a hasty visit to the dentists, where he had his teeth pulled back into shape.

After the TKO win, Villante said, ‘Anderson is a real, real tough kid. (It was) a great fight. I know he’s got a real bright future.’
